Goutam Prusty Bangalore · AI Builder · Curious about how people work
I keep building things that try to understand people.
A session-tracking platform for therapists. A behavioral model built from someone’s Instagram history. A system that maps why we can’t stop scrolling. A language model trained on the way people in South Asia actually speak online — not textbook English, but Hinglish, the code-mixed register most of us use when we’re being ourselves.
I didn’t set out to have a theme. I just noticed one.
My background is in business analysis — I graduated with a BBA in 2024 from New Horizon College of Engineering in Bangalore. Before that I spent a while writing about Indian markets and investing. I ran a small newsletter called The Weekly Money Report for some months, working through ideas on equities, personal finance, and market behavior. That writing habit eventually drifted, via data and curiosity, into building AI systems.
I went through a period that slowed everything down. When it cleared, I found myself back at the computer, building more deliberately than before — slower, more interested in what actually mattered, less interested in what looked good.
That shift is probably visible in the work.
What I find worth thinking about
Human behavior and the data it leaves behind. The gap between what people say they do online and what the patterns show. Language as a cultural artifact — particularly the way Hinglish carries nuance that neither Hindi nor English can alone. AI systems that serve individuals rather than platforms. Why attention works the way it does, and what that means for the tools we build.
I also read about markets, systems thinking, and occasionally things with no practical application at all. That last category is underrated.
