Zoho's Sridhar Vembu Predicts Religion's Growing Role in Post-AI Society
Zoho co-founder Sridhar Vembu predicts that religion will gain importance in a future shaped by artificial intelligence.

His views sparked debate online, with some agreeing and others questioning the role of religion amid technological change.
