The biggest transformative day for the legal system in India will be when it can run local courts using Supreme Court trained AI models to interpret the constitution, evidence, the law, and previous judgements to speedily rule on small cases like a human judge would.
Hope the current judges and lawyers will make it happen soon without resisting. Anyway, these judgements can be further vetted by a human judge to finalize it. This will speed up justice to millions.
Also, petitioners and defendants must be able to use AI agents to argue the case. Indian companies can create these agents trained on Indian law. Thus enabling discovery of top notch AI agents to fight cases further strengthening the legal system.
Further, a blockchain & AI based FIR filing system will be a good start: https://t.co/zt7CWGrgii
Hope GoI creates a Ministry of Futuristic India (MoFI) to look into such ideas. @PMOIndia@HMOIndia.
Btw, @MLJ_GoI can consider something simple to start with - A small AI model trained on Indian constitution, law, cases, judgements, and other legal processes that can vernacularly answer and give legal advise to Indians. @arjunrammeghwal
India can take its time to replicate large, generic AI models... but India can surely and speedily train small, specific AI models in say the Indian legal system, its laws, and using millions of cases and verdicts, to assist our courts to speedily dispose off cases. This AI creation and integration in the Indian legal system will be a great reform, imo.
For years we’ve been told:
“India can’t build deep tech.”
“We do services. Not systems.”
“Real AI is built in Silicon Valley.”
Today, that narrative dies.
We just launched SuperOS — the world’s first AI Operating System that is already running the hospital.
Not assist.
Not generate notes.
Not make PowerPoints.
Run. The. Hospital.

There are only two ADHD survival settings:
1. The Prophet of Doom: I have simulated every possible worst-case scenario and prepared 4 contingency plans because I am terrified of being unprepared.
2. The Jazz Musician: I have zero plans, no map, and I haven't looked at the schedule. I will simply show up and hallucinate a solution in real-time using pure adrenaline.
There is no middle ground
Fathers slogged 10 hours or more in low-paying, thankless jobs, only to return home each evening with two polybags of veggies, fruits, and daily rations, without fail.
Kids were raised to be modest, never throwing tantrums when something fancy or expensive caught their eye.
Mothers, of course, spent endless hours before the choolha, the kerosene stove, and later the gas stove.
That was the average Indian family,
quietly laying the foundation for an India where holidays aren’t limited to Dadi or Nani’s house, where sons and daughters can study abroad, and where ordering a takeout meal is as casual as not feeling like cooking.
That silent grind of fathers, mothers, and kids is the real startup story of India.
I hadn't realized till the @karpathy interview that significant computing breakthroughs like PCs and the internet don't show up as a discontinuity in GDP growth. It's just a smooth exponential. Noticeable uptick post-WW2 from ~1.8% to ~3.6% but stable since.
Dr. Shreenivas, you are calling a scientifically proven substance (Turmeric) in treatment of inflammatory conditions like Psoriasis and Arthritis as pseudoscience because you have been programmed to do so by a system.
Please don't get me wrong, and bear with my long post, but that's exactly what is happening here.
Though you may feel countered and not agree now, one day you will get old enough to realize how the systems we are part of program our brain to act like chatGPT to utter "Pseudoscience" as the next word the moment the word "Ayurveda" is registered.
In fact, if you see my original post, I deliberately edited a term from Curcumin to Ayurveda to trigger this reaction from some to get this message across.
Ayurveda uses Turmeric (with its active ingredient curcumin) for at least two thousand years for inflammatory conditions.
But now there is great modern scientific evidence of curcumin and other compounds in Turmeric working better than not just placebo in the three inflamatory conditions mentioned above, but also currently available pharmaceuticals in some conditions.
These are multiple peer reviewed RCT studies on humans, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses of RCTs published in leading journals.
As a doctor, I am sure, you will be able to go find them if you have an open mind and wish to research further.
But here is a gist of how Turmeric works:
Curcumin inhibits matrix proteinases, enzymes that degrade cartilage, thus preserving joint integrity in osteoarthritis.
Curcumin influences pain pathways, potentially by inhibiting substance P and other mediators, leading to reduced pain perception, as measured by tools like the pain visual analouge scale and Womac scores.
Most importantly, Curcumin inhibits inflammation pathways, such as nuclear factor kappa B and COX-2, reducing the production of cytokines like TNF-a, IL-1b, and IL-6, which are elevated in arthritis (osteo and rheumatoid arthrits).
Ayurvedic practioners recognized these benefits through experience over hundreds of years, intiution, and practise. That is also knowledge.
Not only that, they figured out adding an "anupana" - a medium of transport and delivery - like pepper, enhanced Turmeric effects.
Modern science researching (at UCLA) why Indians add pepper in Haldi milk found Piperine in pepper makes Curcumin bio-available 2000x better. And it is now being used by both Pharaceutical and Neutraceutical companies to enhance curcumin absorbtion.
Understand this: Knowledge is not limited to only modern science. Knowledge creation is not limited to only that comes out rigorous modern scientific research and randomized controlled trials. Humans have produced more knowledge before RCTs even became a thing.
If we keep a very closed mind, let it get programmed by others, and never explore our own traditional knowledge systems, we will forever remains slaves of this modern system and not become a masters of it.
Someone told me "TCM is scientific, not like Ayurveda" in their programmed ignorance forgetting TCM is just like Ayurveda from China.
But the difference is, the Chinese, who do not have colonized minds like us Indians, are taking their knowledge system with an open mind and getting it passed through modern scientific system. That is research -> publish -> peer review -> prove to world it works.
If we sit with a closed mind that "Ayurveda is Pseudoscience" then we will never be able to benefit from and advance a vast amount of traditional knowledge our ancestors have gathered over centuries. Instead we will forever remain slaves of other systems.
It won't be long before the Chinese come sell us our own Turmeric based treatments for inflamatory conditions and Ayurvedic Andropgraphis as an antibiotic as scientific treatments backed by their published research.
We will use that too claiming "but sir, that is scientific" as told to us, while doing no science ourselves with our own enormous amount of existing traditional knowledge.
I feel extremely lucky building beside folks like @romannurik … he is a magician! Made it possible to build prototypes on the phone! So much more to come from the team! Can’t wait to share with all our users what we have been cooking.
