Padma awardee and Mahindra Group chairman Anand Mahindra backed the young girl for her extraordinarily quick thinking and offered a job to Nikita, a girl from Uttar Pradesh’s Basti district who saved her younger sister and herself from monkeys using the Alexa device. He said that this story proves that “technology will always be an enabler of human ingenuity.”
“The dominant question of our era is whether we will become slaves or masters of technology. The story of this young girl provides comfort that technology will always be an ENABLER of human ingenuity. Her quick thinking was extraordinary,” Anand Mahindra said in his post on X (formerly Twitter).
He added: “What she demonstrated was the potential for leadership in an entirely unpredictable world. After she finishes her education, if she ever decides to work in the corporate world, I hope we at Mahindra Rise will be able to convince her to join us!!”
