Key takeaways from Quoraverse 2025

AI as a co-pilot, not a replacement

Alok Arya of Equentis reminded marketers that AI output often lacks distinction without creative direction — it works best guided by a clear brand voice. Prasad Pimple from Kotak Insurance reinforced this, showing context-aware AI can boost efficiency and trust, with humans closing the loop. Akhil Suhag of CleverTap urged prioritising speed over perfection through rapid prototyping. Abhishek Seth of HP added that understanding AI systems, not just using tools, separates strategic marketers from reactive ones. Aditi Olemann of Cashfree Payments demonstrated how AI-driven creative production paired with human oversight scales content without losing emotional depth.

Trust and authenticity can’t be automated

Richa Singh of the Natural Diamond Council stressed that AI adds value only when it strengthens transparency and simplifies complexity. Arti Saxena from the World Gold Council warned that synthetic influencers can undermine credibility in high-trust categories. Rasika Prashant from Tata Soulfull highlighted AI-enabled personalisation that creates one-to-one moments without losing emotion. Madhur Gopal of Manipal Hospitals illustrated how AI can make healthcare communication clearer and more empathetic.

Operational excellence is the real frontier

Rajiv Dubey of Dabur showcased AI modernising traditional practices like Ayurveda, enhancing heritage rather than replacing it. Sajit Gopal of Jubilant Foodworks demonstrated AI’s impact on demand forecasting, logistics, and creative testing. Naved Chaudhary of Ingram Micro highlighted AI’s orchestration capabilities, connecting products, data, and people for smoother operations.

Human knowledge powers AI discovery

Neha Bagaria of HerKey emphasised inclusive AI design that builds trust and loyalty. From Quora’s Vinay Pandey and Gurmit Singh came the key message: as search moves to AI-driven, answer-first experiences, human expertise drives visibility. Brands investing in experience-backed knowledge are more likely to surface across emerging AI platforms.

Maintaining a human framework for intelligent growth

Across the three events, marketers agreed: the future of brand-building isn’t AI versus human — it’s AI guided by human judgment. Effective strategies combine automation with empathy, analytics with creativity, and data with storytelling. Platforms built on genuine human knowledge, like Quora, are increasingly central to helping brands remain visible, credible, and human in an AI-driven world.
