Ayush Prakash Author, Podcaster

I'm Ayush Prakash, an author, podcaster, and Creative Director at New Sapience, an AI company developing foundational machine intelligence. I host the Gen Z Diplomat podcast, where I explore how Technology, culture, and society are reshaping human experience—especially for my generation. My latest book, AI for Gen Z, is a deep dive into how Artificial Intelligence is rewiring our minds, Relationships, and reality. I’m passionate about making complex ideas accessible, challenging conventional narratives, and helping others think more critically in a noisy, digital world. Outside of work, I’m fascinated by philosophy, old and contemporary architecture, and meaningful conversations that go off-script.
