During his conversation with Jain, Ambani discussed a wide range of topics. He shared his views on work-life balance, adding that both work and family are his biggest priorities. He further reminded the audience that an individual's priorities change as they grow old.

He also discussed the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the job market and said that this technological shift will be the driving force behind India's economic growth.

“In my view, AI is the engine that will empower India to grow at 10 percent or double-digit growth numbers for the foreseeable future,” he stated. “We need to continue investing in AI infrastructure and data centers that can scale to serve millions of users. At Jio, we are already doing that,” he added.
