Most people use AI like a search engine. I've been using mine like a research partner — running experiments at home, writing up what holds, what breaks, and what changed my mind. The site is where that work shows up, fact-checked in public, before it shows up anywhere else.
The name
Mogambo was the theatrical villain of a 1987 Hindi film whose catchphrase — Mogambo khush hua, "Mogambo is pleased" — became one of India's most quoted lines. I borrowed the name and inverted it: this Mogambo is pleased when things go right. Longer story →
Who's behind it
I'm Amit Sharma. I've spent 25 years building infrastructure, platforms, and now AI capabilities at a global financial institution — most of which can't leave work. This site is the outlet for everything adjacent: the frameworks, experiments, and questions that are too interesting to shelve but too personal to publish through official channels.
I'm not a fitness influencer, a hedge-fund manager, or an AI researcher. I'm someone who runs 5Ks, reads IPO filings for fun, and thinks AI deserves more careful treatment than most people give it. That's the Venn diagram this site lives in.
Three pillars
- Field Notes — practitioner notes from the day job. Enterprise AI, M365 Copilot, the gap between vendor promises and regulated reality.
- Family & Friends — questions I'm exploring with the people closest to me. Investing, parenting, the curiosities in between. No advice; shared thinking.
- Health & Wellness — what's working at 50, what isn't, what the body actually does versus what the plan said it would.
If you want to know how this is made — the three identities behind the byline, the editorial process, why the name, why the AI runs on a home network — that's a separate read.
