In the current Mechanistic Interpretability research atten. heads and MLP are considered atomic units, however we do not think so. Curious to know what is more foundational? Check our #NeurIPS2025 paper: https://t.co/0XJ53EvVkl

A pioneering step in India’s legal-tech landscape!

The Department of IT & e-Governance, Government of Jharkhand, and IIT Kanpur have signed an MoU to integrate Artificial Intelligence into the State’s legal systems — marking India’s first such initiative in the legal-justice sector.

This forward-looking collaboration aims to strengthen institutional capacities, enhance efficiency, and accelerate digital transformation in governance.

The initiative is led by Mrs. Pooja Singhal (IT Secretary, DoIT Jharkhand), Dr. Ashutosh Modi (CSE, IIT Kanpur), and Ms. Nishi Yadav (Legal) — setting a benchmark for innovation-driven public service.
