India's upcoming #AIImpactSummit2026 can shift the global dialogue on #ArtificialIntelligence, with New Delhi potentially positioning itself as a voice for the global south and advocate for AI that is inclusive, affordable, and aligned with regional needs

On #GlobalLens, Anjali Kaur, Senior Associate, @CSIS and Former Deputy Assistant Administrator, USAID and @alpanrav, Chief Scientist, @WadhwaniAI, break down how India can lead for the Global South in conversation with @Parikshitl

@sabeer Actually it ranks 102/123, a minor detail (https://t.co/g8s0McH5dX). But India's GHI has been significantly decreasing year on year and, while the GHI is serious, it is no longer alarming or extremely alarming. This improvement is what we need, isn't it?

@achyutchetan This criticism by an IITian of the work of Sen obviously appears to be flippant, but I also think that genuine criticisms of individuals and sometimes even fields should be welcome. A Nobel cannot be a shield from criticism, and should not automatically stand for "the best".

@AnimaAnandkumar I am not sure if solving nonlinear PDEs should be considered AI for Science. Perhaps AI for numerical solvers is a better term. Imo AI for Science would be discovering the PDEs themselves from data.

Instead of reacting to student dropouts, we're preventing them. In Gujarat, our Early Warning System with @EduMinOfGujarat & @UNICEFIndia proactively identifies and supports students at risk. Discover the story behind the system ⬇️

@dr_alphalyrae If this is not obvious to those working in any technical field, then maybe they should question whether they are in the right field in the first place.

@NTFabiano Have you taken into account the fact that Nobel prize winners are overwhelmingly decided by committees from countries that eat a lot of chocolate? 🙂

@octonion How do you increase diversity of estimates without increasing average individual error? After all the latter is bounded below by the former, and the two aren't independent.

Gujarat and Rajasthan never engage in linguistic politics.

They only speak the language of business, investments, and job creation.

@im_mansigupta Depends on the city. Mumbai, for example, is very pedestrian friendly.

@sonukg4india f is not a function.

@_amitbehere I returned 16 years ago from a wonderful job in the US to happily live in India. No regrets at all! So there is at least one counterexample to your claim.

@octonion This should be quadratic in the number of pieces to leading order. About 25 hrs.

Friends, need your help.

@antarikshB, a senior from IIT B has launched an incredible project of organizing all Sanskrit literature in one place, in a user-friendly manner.

The service is free, not-for-profit, created purely out of passion. Media coverage will go a long way in ensuring the service reaches the right people.

Could you help by RT-ing and perhaps tag the right people?

Awesome to see our team's work on newborn anthropometry featured on state TV and radio news networks https://t.co/W8bxm7cYTG! 👶
Also, funnily enough our work on oral reading fluency, also deployed across Gujarat, has taught me enough Gujarati to understand this 🤓

@Saichand_Kasi @sagarcasm You mean Fourier transform. And technically when you have less time you have more “bandwidth” in frequency space, and vice versa. So we don’t use the term bandwidth correctly. When we have less time we should really say we have a lot of bandwidth. :)

Happy 131st Birthday to Satyendra Nath Bose (b.OTD in 1894), Indian physicist who made significant contributions to quantum mechanics, leading to the development of Bose-Einstein statistics and the prediction of a new state of matter called the Bose-Einstein condensate. Despite his groundbreaking work, Bose never received a Nobel Prize.

@markmeyourze Veena Stores in Bangalore has to be on the top of this list.
