Dipankar Sarkar

Author, The GenAI Playbook

Dipankar Sarkar is the author of The GenAI Playbook — an open-source, executive-grade guide to implementing Generative AI in organizations. He writes about practical AI adoption: strategy, security, data foundations, people analytics, and measurable ROI.

The Playbook is published in 10 languages under the Apache 2.0 license and is used by CXOs, IT leaders, and innovation managers worldwide to navigate Generative AI adoption — from core concepts to future-proofing. A companion Agentic AI Playbook extends the guide into autonomous agents, tool use, the Model Context Protocol (MCP), orchestration, evals, and production deployment.

What this site is

What Generative AI is an open-source, vendor-neutral reference for turning Generative AI from a demo into durable business value. It is deliberately practical: every chapter ends with steps you can act on, and the writing is calibrated for decision-makers who need depth without academic jargon. The two playbooks together span 21 chapters covering strategy, data foundations, security and compliance, people analytics, developer productivity, agent architecture, and the road ahead.
