Pariksha Pe Charcha: Technology should be a tool, not a crutch, say experts

Students must learn to harness technology effectively without becoming overly dependent on it, said Radhika Gupta, CEO of Edelweiss Asset Management, during the third episode of Pariksha Pe Charcha 2025, on Thursday.

Alongside tech expert and YouTuber Gaurav Chaudhary—popularly known as “Technical Guruji”—Gupta stressed the importance of maintaining a balance between digital assistance and personal skills.

“In a professional context, if our skills are overshadowed by technology, it becomes problematic. I strive to make technology my servant, not my master,” Gupta said.

She cautioned against the overuse of AI. “My passion is writing, framing sentences, and playing with words. I don’t want AI to write an 800-word essay for me; I want to do it myself. I constantly remind myself not to rely on AI for this, even if it takes longer.”

Chaudhary added that while technology has undeniably simplified many aspects of life, it has also impaired our ability to retain simple information, like phone numbers.

“Our dependency on technology must not come at the cost of our skill sets, creativity, and core identity,” he said.
