सामान्य जनतेला वेठीस धरणाऱ्या व्हीआयपी कल्चरचा जनतेला आता कंटाळा आला आहे. लोकांचा संयम ढळू लागला आहे, त्यातूनच मुंबईतील एका महिलेने मंत्री गिरीश महाजन यांची त्यांच्यामुळे झालेल्या वाहतुक कोंडीवरून खरडपट्टी काढली.

If your child becomes a reader, about 80% of the education job is already done. That's my honest assessment after working in education for over thirty years. Everything else is secondary. Most parents think science education is important. Yes it is. But if you can't read the biology textbook, you're not going to learn biology.

Reading is the meta-skill that enables all other skills. History requires reading. Science requires reading. Even math increasingly requires reading as it becomes more sophisticated. The child who reads voraciously will figure out everything else. The child who doesn't will struggle with everything.

This is so funny! @sama being so awkward, given he would have to hold hands with @DarioAmodei.

Funny to see him avoid doing this.

@Math_files @grok is this true?

[Amit Manchanda @a2tm7a]

@marinebharat @grok fact check this for india. Also what was the value in the last 5 years in india.

[Amit Manchanda @a2tm7a]

@tumisindong @grok explain this

AI wrapped 2025

[Shubham @shubham7stark]

I often ask engineers what “technical growth” means.

Most say: high-scale systems, millions of users, massive throughput.

After 3 years building a B2B SaaS, I’ve learned this:
scale is overrated. Depth is where the real complexity lives.

@hiakshayy Set-up AI specialised towards finding security bugs

Here are 5 schools in India that are rethinking how we educate our future generations!
I’ve picked one structure within each school that I found the most unique.🧵

Wow. I should read @OurWorldInData more often!

[Boyan Slat @BoyanSlat]

Recently, I decided I wanted to read every page of one of my favorite websites, @OurWorldInData.

I’m about halfway now.

Here are the 30 most surprising things I’ve learned about the world so far! 🧵

4. Critical Use-Cases: In high-stakes fields, full AI adoption will take time due to the need for trust and reliability.

[Amit Manchanda @a2tm7a]

(1/3) Someone asked me what framework to use to evaluate the adoption of AI in different sectors. From a 30k ft, I would want to use:

1. Price Sensitivity: Sectors with tighter margins, like e-commerce and smartphones, will be rapidly embracing AI to boost efficiency and profits

[Amit Manchanda @a2tm7a]

2. User Experience: Sectors that demand good end-user experience will start to see experiments in the AI Space.
3. High Barrier to entry: Industries with high entry barriers will approach AI more slowly. Their established revenue streams make them less worried about it.

[Amit Manchanda @a2tm7a]

The more I deep dive into a particular sector, the more I see redundancy, repetitive tasks, and manual processes.

Each sector would take it's own time to adopt AI (just like it did with Digitalisation)! 🏭

[Amit Manchanda @a2tm7a]

Can’t relate more!

Startup life:

2:04pm: I think we're going out of business

2:30pm: (customer demo goes well)

2:33pm: I'm pretty sure we're going to IPO next year

Another powerful AI by @Google, waiting for @OpenAI for their large multimodal models. 🎉

Seeing some qs on what Gemini *is* (beyond the zodiac :). Best way to understand Gemini’s underlying amazing capabilities is to see them in action, take a look ⬇️

@_groww with the financial information and rules changing every year, would request if you could add a "updated on" or "written on" field in all your public documents (https://t.co/NyTM3Xxrch). I am not able to trust the Taxation details here. Seems old. @lkeshre @harshjain85
