Navigating the oncoming AI Tsunami that is about to hit global businesses

Living in AI’s AD/BC Moment

2020Compute is where I, Gautam Goswami, work with leaders to design products, business models and go‑to‑market systems that earn their place in that future — instead of being steamrolled by it.

What is 2020Compute?

2020Compute is my personal studio and LLC — a place where 30+ years across product, marketing and technology get focused on one question:

How do we build AI‑native products that compound value for humans, not just engagement for algorithms?

I collaborate with:

Founders & CEOs reinventing their product and GTM around AI

Investors & boards looking for clear thinking on where AI, live video commerce and the creator economy are really going

Product & marketing leaders who know their current playbook was written for a pre‑AI, pre‑video world

The future of humanity in the age of AI & Scarce Attention Spans

At 2020Compute, we believe in a few absolute truths

AI will split humanity

AI will not replace humans in their entirety, but it will create a 2 class system that will be more polarizing than any other racial or political divide humans have experienced

Platforms should serve people, not the other way around

Social algorithms optimized for outrage and addiction distort reality and damage younger generations. I’ve argued publicly that we must redesign these systems — or walk away from them — instead of letting them define our culture

Who am I?

I was trained as a mechanical engineer, then as a marketer. I moved from India to Silicon Valley in 2000 and have spent the decades since living at the intersection of deep tech, product and storytelling.

  • Currently serve as CEO and Chief AI Officer of CommentSold and as a driving force behind POP.STORE, helping thousands of retailers and creators grow through live video commerce and audience ownership.
  • Was a Managing Director at Permira (Global PE Fund)
  • Led global product and marketing at TeamViewer, pushing augmented reality and remote‑expert tools from niche to mainstream
  • Advised multiple PE/VC‑backed companies on product, GTM and transformation as a long‑time partner to Permira.
