6) So the trust boundaries should be established clearly between the LLM models and the org. Ground rules will have to be redefined and should evolve continuously. Orgs should be able to own this continuous learning curve, switch between various models effortlessly depending upon their training requirements, build their own proprietary learning environments, cordon them off from the competitors, etc. Only then can they become a hill-climbing machine

1) Contextual Data is the new oil, and data wars are upon us.

⁠In 2026, organizations using LLMs for various use cases are firmly caught between a rock and a hard place. It is a proper Catch-22 situation for them. Satya Nadella recently highlighted the same in his article: The Reverse Information Paradox

5) Data wars will be very big over time. Especially contextual rare data. That is one of the reasons why Local Models will get more prominence with time, as data will become a massive moat for an org if it is not already

Inspired by Founders Fund, we shot a game of Mafia in Bangalore. Here’s Episode 1 ☺️

Kushal is really terrible. Terrible at Mafia.

But he is a great investor. Episode 1 dropping soon 😃

What are some Top AI companies being built out of Bangalore? Please tag them.

Would love to meet some iconic founders who are doing cutting edge work in AI.

India needs 1000s of such deep-tech, hard manufacturing startups. We have to solve many of our structural problems, and the answers will emerge indigenously. Eventually, these same solutions can also be adopted by the world at large.

[Roman Saini @RomanSaini]

I am quite amazed at the deep tech revolution in India. And Bengaluru is right at the center of it!

[Roman Saini @RomanSaini]

Both founders never went to college, are around 20-21, have 0 fear of failure, are good friends, and live near the offices, cut off from the main city. Both also relocated from Mumbai to Bengaluru to increase their odds of success.
