Big day for all of us at Sarvam.
I want to start by thanking my team for shouldering this mission with immense belief, urgency, and care.
Reflecting on the last few years of the founding journey, my conviction has only deepened:
- AI will be far more consequential than most of us realize even today
- The value loops of this new world cannot be owned by a couple of companies
- Country of India scale cannot rent intelligence. We have to build it ourselves
We are going to push hard across every layer of the company, but the thing that excites me most right now is our shot at building frontier-class AI systems from India. We are assembling the team, the compute, and the deployment engine to make this happen.
I also want to thank our new investors. HCLTech’s partnership opens joint opportunities to bring our research and platform to many of HCLTech’s clients - this is also a unique template to bring together India’s strengths. BVP brings to the team the rare combination of being at the forefront of India's biggest tech shifts for the past two decades while globally having partnered with category defining enterprise AI companies.
Onwards
We have got my correct answer sheet by CBSE . CBSE officials reached out to us in the evening and has sent my answer sheet, We were correct on our claims and the answer sheet indeed got exchanged .
JS-Coordination wrote to Vedant today attaching his correct answer book and confirming that
-The error was real.
-The student was right.
For all those who thought a young 12th class student was a ‘Pakistani’ - Govt of India doesn’t think so. CBSE has accepted the mistake and issued him his answer sheet.
Any warmth, optimism and positivity that you have towards Chennai evaporates the moment you try catching a cab after stepping out of the airport
Because unlike most cities where you get out, open an app, book a cab and go, in Chennai you have to
Haul your luggage in the enervating heat to an overcrowded buggy stand.
Then wait for an buggy which takes an eternity to arrive.
Into which you are then stuffed like a sardine in a can and driven for 20 mins to a god forsaken "mall"
Where you again have to compete with a batallion of tired and hungry travellers and their luggage to get onto an elevator
Which will take you 3 floors up to a taxi stand where you hope there is cab available
Which will then drive you down those very three floors to take you into the city
I seriously cannot comprehend how the supposedly knowledgeable Chennai people messed up something as simple as an Airport cab pick up
All of Chennai's aspirations to be a megapolis dies in that gap between the airport arrival and that cab pickup station
Nothing like it.
One of the underrated joys of traveling is going to an alien nation, hopping subways, getting down at a small, less crowded station, and then just occupying a bench at the exit. The city looks different from a 4ft vantage point. People rushing in, some emerging out of staircase. While you sip your coffee, at peace. Suddenly the city feels like your own, more than the ones running. There are trees. You notice birds. Birds notice you. Time runs a bit slow. Joy.
delhi doesn’t know how to celebrate festivals 🙏🏼
i stepped out now at 10am and don’t see a single house with maavina ele? no kids dressed in new clothes? not even bevu bella offered on yugadi in temples.
why is this city so boring
As you look at the horrific pictures of the bombed Iranian school…
Pause for a minute and think..
Indian Air Force and the Army were given 2 and 7 terror targets respectively to hit on the night of May 6-7 in Op Sindoor…
Each was fully destroyed…
On the morning of May 8, the IAF carried out extensive air defence suppression using long-range kamikaze drones…
On May 9-10 the IAF targeted 14 PAF bases or radar stations/missile batteries…
Destructive evidence of almost all these strikes cane up in satellite pictures…
All strikes were carried out by precision munitions from long distances…
Not one missed aim or strayed to harm civilians… no school, no village or city, no hospitals. None…
This despite not having a fraction of the US military weapons, sensors or surveillance ability…
And in a furiously contested air space against near-peer PAF and its Chinese air defences…
Let’s give credit where due. To our armed forces in this case…
@thekaipullai Micro cases that you mention are mostly one person, one situation One time fix which we are good at.
Macro cases require long term planning and daily maintenance which we are lazy at.
