The author recounts preparing a 15-day AI build fellowship: 300+ applications came in, and the team read every form, ranked profiles, ran a waitlist, hopped on calls, and sent personalized emails, ultimately selecting 52 builders.
They come from varied backgrounds but share a goal of building "something from India for the world" and becoming AI-native. Over 15 days they'll go from idea to launched product with users, backed by OpenAI Developers, AWS, Sarvam, and Dodo Payments.
