1/ I like to help people. And this is a trait imbibed in me by my dad. This thread is about how he did it.

Founded by three women, Turning Pages Foundation is helping children across India rediscover books through storytelling, classroom libraries, and joyful reading practices.

Madrid tripled the length of its metro system in just 12 years — faster and cheaper than almost any other city in the world. What can its expansion teach other cities? https://t.co/Xj42tfvzNt

Very well articulated by @satyanadella

Every company will eventually have its own AI Brain augmenting human knowledge - a living system that learns from every employee, every workflow, every customer interaction, every success, every failure.

Today, human learning scales linearly:
- A salesperson learns from her deals.
- An engineer learns from her code.
- A marketer learns from her campaigns.

But an AI Brain learns from all of them simultaneously. And unlike humans, it doesn't forget!

Over time, every employee benefits from this accumulated learning of everyone else.

The companies that build this first won't just be more efficient. They'll become far superior with a compounding edge that will be exponential.

For the first time in history, a company's intelligence can grow faster than its headcount.

Agreed. Making housing more affordable expands choice, and would love to see housing become much more affordable.

My discomfort is with treating fertility as a KPI for the state to optimize.

If freer markets, cheaper housing and better opportunities lead people to have more children, great.
But that's very different from designing policy around a target birth rate.

[Janhavi Nilekani @JanhaviNilekani]

Yes, we must protect individual choices. But people make choices in context. Housing for example could definitely be made less expensive with more YIMBY policies.

[Dhimant Parekh @dhimant]

Across almost every affluent society, fertility falls when:

- Women become educated
- Child mortality falls
- Urbanization rises
- Housing becomes expensive
- Opportunity costs of parenting increase

This has happened regardless of whether the government was capitalist, socialist, Asian, European, or American.

The state's job is not to create policies to optimize the fertility rate.
The state's job is to protect liberty and let individuals make family decisions.

My Times of India op-ed today on collapsing fertility rates, and the policy we need: hum do, humare teen. Link in comments!

Can you guess history before it happens? 🕐

"On This Day" shows you a scene set 10 seconds before a famous historical event. Your job: figure out what's about to happen.

We @thebetterindia have been using AI agents to automate many repetitive and time-consuming tasks. You can read one such usecase here: https://t.co/dQHTNFg0t7

Now, we are collaborating with @Basethesislabs to do a workshop on how you can use AI agents to grow your org.
More details here: https://t.co/ACO8IPRc95

[Claude @claudeai]

Introducing Claude Managed Agents: everything you need to build and deploy agents at scale.

It pairs an agent harness tuned for performance with production infrastructure, so you can go from prototype to launch in days.

Now in public beta on the Claude Platform.

[Dhimant Parekh @dhimant]

PSA: Would not recommend @TataAIGMotor for your motor insurance. They don’t approve basic of claims because of some clauses that their own agent had sold.

Putting this out there in case one is considering buying insurance for their vehicle.

[BaseThesis Labs @Basethesislabs]

"Agents monitor the market, handle customers, execute decisions. You check in every few days."

Most founders we know are nowhere near this. Not because they don't want it - because nobody's actually helped them set it up and get it running tailored to their business.

We're organizing a hands-on AI workshop at our lab on 15th April 2026 specifically for this. @dhimant from the @thebetterindia will also show you how their team uses ambient AI agents to automate aspects of operations, marketing, and invoicing.

Check out the workshop details here and register: https://t.co/ZRKdjWkR86

This will definitely be beneficial for startup/D2C founders, team leads and business owners.

We at @thebetterindia in collaboration with Mann Deshi Foundation, are helping women in Maharashtra’s most vulnerable villages to get access to solar dehydrators, which will help them process the harvested fruits to avoid post-harvest crop spoilage. Read how you can contribute:

A transgender activist builds 23 grassroots organisations. A teenage girl prevents child marriages in her village. A young father reshapes caregiving at home. These are not isolated stories — they show what happens when communities lead change from within. https://t.co/ftSHK3eb7k

[Dhimant Parekh @dhimant]

@openclawlabs @openclaw Thanks! Will try this.

[Dhimant Parekh @dhimant]

How are folks getting their @openclaw agent to span sub-agents? What’s the prompt?

[Dhimant Parekh @dhimant]

@aniketmaurya Thanks! Have DM-ed you a couple of queries :)

[Dhimant Parekh @dhimant]

@aniketmaurya Yep just did. Very seamless!
