Can one AI tool really replace your research, notes, and inbox apps? 🤯

Smart, fast, and surprisingly powerful.

This is big: all access to Mythos and Fable AI models disabled for everyone outside America.
First thoughts:
1. Technology is the ultimate weapon. National sovereignty, national security, all of it is now about technology.
2. Globalization is dead and Bharat must find her own way ahead.
We must keep these two ideas in mind.
What can our government do right now? Ensure that orgs in India embrace smaller models, both Indian and Chinese open source ones. With a bit of effort, we can make them work. Anyway, why pay money to people who don't even want to sell to you?
We must deepen our R&D. Sarvam has been on it and we have been on it but remember that the latest models cost not only huge GPU budgets to train, the GPUs themselves are restricted. So we can't afford the scale of money (of the order of $100+ billion to even get in the game!) and even if we could come up with the money, we can't get all the GPUs. I would not like to ask the government to fund tens of billions of dollars on this anyway - the money has far better uses.
Zoho has been pursuing alternative R&D approaches that are far, far less expensive but by its nature cutting edge R&D takes time and we are patient. I am confident we will get there.
Any remaining people in India who have delusions about globalization should wake up now.

@AdityaRajKaul@Bandopadhyay_@narendramodi When you can’t keep up with the pace of a rising giant, you retreat into the gutter of 19th-century racism. This cartoon shows the bitter desperation of a fading power that has nothing left but its own prejudice. Your jealousy is showing, and it’s a terrible look.
I remember his first five years as PM, and I remember all the memes about how he was always away from India.
Much later, many of us realised those visits were about rebuilding and strengthening relationships with other countries.
And today, he is doing it again for India.
He may not be right 100% of the time - no leader is - and that is perfectly acceptable. But one thing I have always felt is that his intentions and his heart are for the welfare and progress of this country.
140 crore Indians will never be able to repay debts of Narendra Modi.
He has done what no one can imagine, during each challenge. Consistently. For past 24 years.
He's the real life Iron Man.
From being the country where most people didn't have access to electricity to ensuring near universal coverage, India has travelled a long distance in just over a decade- that's the power of good governance, of the leadership of Adarniya @narendramodi ji.
People in the west don’t understand what electrifying 1.4 billion people actually means. India went from ~400 million people without electricity to near universal access in ~10yrs.
The chart below alone explains PM Modi’s popularity.
The number of people without electricity by country.
Look what happened after 2016. Someone started fixing India for real. Many things at a time. Still some way to go. The lag of last 60 is that bad.
2ND APPEAL TO US ALL IN 2 DAYS.
CLEARLY, PM SEES THE LARGER PICTURE. THIS WAR ISN'T ENDING SOON AND INDIA IS IN FOR A TOUGH TIME.
"Even in the earlier decades, whenever the country has gone through war or any other major crisis, every citizen has fulfilled their responsibility in the same way in response to the government's appeal. Today, too, there is a need for all of us to come together and fulfil our responsibility to reduce the burden on the country's resources. India spends lakhs of crores of rupees in foreign exchange to import many products from abroad. At the same time, the prices of imported goods are soaring, and global supply chains have also been severely disrupted. Just as every drop fills a pot, every small and big effort matters. We must reduce the use of products that come from abroad and avoid unnecessary dependence on imported goods in our daily lives, and also avoid such personal activities that involve spending foreign exchange..."
"Vijay (with a personal net worth of Rs. 650 crores) will personally give Rs. 2500 each to 3 crore women in TN."
"Modi opened an Adani built airport for Rs. 1500 crores. Why doesn't he give Rs. 1 crore each to 150 crore Indians and make everyone rich?"
This is the level of many Indian youngsters.
Now, the problem I see is, SM platforms (especially Meta ones) are full of these emotional youngsters from India, with scientifically proven lower IQ than their previous generations, who are being psyoped and programmed by India's adversaries - Deep State West, GLISCO-DS, Pak, China etc.
To cultivate them as a potent anti-India force inside India.
And India is unfortunately doing very less as a country to prevent this. It requires state level resources to fight the psyops and programming of India's youth via SM by nation-state adversaries. And to re-guide them in national interests, no matter whatever their political or ideological views.
The Ashtavakra Gita is perhaps the most dangerous book ever written. No it is not violent. It is completely uncompromising. It says you are not on a journey toward liberation. You are already free. The search itself is the only bondage. Every practice, every ritual, every effort to become more spiritual is, according to Ashtavakra, the ego’s most sophisticated strategy to avoid recognizing what is already and has always been the case. You are not a human being trying to find consciousness. You are consciousness that has temporarily forgotten itself. That recognition does not take years of practice. It takes one moment of absolute honesty. Most people are not ready for that book. Because most people are not yet ready to stop searching. And Ashtavakra will not wait for you to be ready. He simply tells you the truth and walks away.
