Amish Tripathi on AI, Indian History, Creativity, Mythology & the Future of Storytelling

Welcome to Cyrus Says!

In this episode, Cyrus is joined by bestselling author Amish Tripathi for a fascinating conversation on AI, creativity, Indian history, mythology, storytelling, and the future of ideas. From whether AI can ever truly replace writers to the danger of younger generations using it as a crutch, Amish breaks down the opportunities and risks of this rapidly changing world.

The episode also dives into how Indian history has been misunderstood and under-taught, why our civilizational memory matters, how the British shaped historical narratives, and why ancient India’s achievements in trade, knowledge, and seafaring deserve far more attention.

Also, Amish opens up about his podcast, his work in gaming, and the ambitious worlds he’s now building beyond books.
