Questions asked in this interview

  1. 0:09As a matter of fact, was Silicon Valley written for you or about you?
  2. 0:48But what else, anything else you want to mention about yourself in context of this conversation?
  3. 1:12So I'll kind of jump in with the first question and just ask you, how is AI transforming the day-to-day work of CSMs right now, given today's technology?
  4. 3:54Do you think that this puts McKinsey out of business?
Interviewer 0:09 ↗
You know, just starting to understand what this has to do with it. So, that's what I'm working on. And Nick, your resume is three and a half miles long. You look like you are central casting for a Silicon Valley executive. As a matter of fact, was Silicon Valley written for you or about you? I'm not sure.
Nick Mehta 0:31 ↗
Yeah, I totally was that cheesiest, most annoying guy in the show. What was that guy's name? I'm not kidding. Yeah. So, yeah. No, totally. I mean, when you said stereotype of a Silicon Valley executive, I was like, that's definitely not a compliment. But, no, I'm just kidding.
Interviewer 0:48 ↗
I'm glad you say that. But anything else you wanted to mention about your background? I know you're the CEO of Gainsight, which is a bonafide unicorn I think at this point. But what else, anything else you want to mention about yourself in context of this conversation?
Nick Mehta 1:04 ↗
No, except I'm just absolutely obsessed with AI in a way that's probably beyond healthy. So I'm happy to talk about any of this stuff.
