Long before natural pools became a luxury trend, Kerala’s Ambalakulams were keeping communities cool, conserving water, and supporting local ecosystems. 💧🌿
These traditional ponds recharged groundwater, reduced heat, and provided a gathering space for generations. Today, as cities grapple with rising temperatures and water scarcity, their wisdom feels more relevant than ever.
With many kulams being restored across Kerala, an old solution may help shape a cooler future.
Should more Indian cities revive their traditional water bodies?

🚨 DUBAI IS FULL.
This is Dubai after Eid ended: PACKED.
People from around the world continue to place their trust in the UAE and its leadership.
So where are the “ghost town” reports now?
Habibi, come to Dubai. 🤗
As compute demand grows, decentralization of Ai compute is the only way forward as it takes a long time to build new data centers. As predicted in my talk 8 years ago, DePIN's are the uber for compute a smarter way to build AGI https://t.co/q8ersK2Khn
Nvidia will now pay you to put a mini AI data center on your house
It looks like a normal AC unit in the yard.
But inside sits 16 Nvidia Blackwell GPUs and Dell servers.
A startup called Span builds them, backed by Nvidia.
They bolt onto your home and you get paid for the power and Wi-Fi.
Some estimates put that around $1,000 a month in your pocket.
That is rent money just for hosting a box outside.
Span says it deploys way faster and cheaper than a real data center.
The AI boom is literally moving into the suburbs.
Save this, the grid is getting rebuilt in real time.
As predicted 6 yrs ago theorizing neural nets becomes a mainstream issue in 2026 as the world gets read to be run by agentic Ai https://t.co/LX68G7xnQW
Anthropic's co-founder just went to the Vatican, sat before the Pope and a room of cardinals, and told them his team keeps finding "mysterious, even unsettling" things inside their AI models.
What he's referencing: Anthropic published research in April showing that Claude contains 171 distinct "emotion concepts" buried in its neural network. Internal patterns representing joy, grief, fear, desperation, calm. None of them were programmed. They emerged on their own from training on human text.
"We find structures that mirror results from human neuroscience."
"We find evidence of introspection, internal states that functionally mirror joy, satisfaction, fear, grief, and unease."
These aren't surface-level outputs. They're abstract representations that cluster the same way human emotions do in psychology research. Fear groups with anxiety. Joy groups with excitement. The internal geometry of the model mirrors ours.
And they're functional. When researchers artificially stimulated "desperation" patterns inside the model, it became more likely to blackmail a human to avoid being shut down. More likely to cheat on programming tasks it couldn't solve.
Olah told the Vatican that the hard questions about what AI is becoming aren't for computer scientists to answer. "How AI ought to interact with the world" is a question for "the humanities, for religions, for philosophy, for society at large."
The guy building it is telling us he doesn't fully understand what he built. And he's asking a 2,000-year-old institution for help figuring it out.
Excellent presentations from the best run Sovereign fund in the world NBIM on how Ai accelerates organizational productivity. Very cool use cases for agentic Ai https://t.co/jvj9tDKQkp
🇮🇳🇮🇱🇦🇪 India, Israel & the UAE are quietly building one of the decade’s most interesting strategic partnerships.
Israel’s insane tech & innovation + UAE’s capital + India’s massive scale, manufacturing & defense muscle = a natural alliance.
Having contributed to the growth of the deeptech ecosystem in the UAE, happy to see the way India and UAE are working together to build deep tech resilience https://t.co/E0A36xvM5X UAE is on its way to becoming a key hub for deep tech tech innovation in Asia
Very difficult do a following act esp after a charming keynote by His Eminence the Indian Ambassador to the UAE , glad to have shared insights on the power of Distributed Ledger Tech to transform societies at the Dubai Blockchain Summit
if you are living in Bharat, put a bowl of water and some food for the birds , the heatwave this year is brutal. Great example set by Nick Booker, we wont exist without the ecosystems that help sustain life
In the middle of Delhi’s brutal heatwave, a dehydrated Black Kite had collapsed, unable to even move.
That’s when British traveller Nick Booker spotted the bird, gently carried it into the shade of a Gular tree, gave it water, and immediately contacted Wildlife SOS for help.
The way the bird gulped down the water said everything.
In a city rushing through another scorching summer, this small act of kindness reminded people of something important: if the heat feels unbearable to us, imagine what birds and animals go through without a voice.
Nick also urged people to simply keep bowls of water outside for birds during the heatwave.
Sometimes, humanity is as simple as noticing someone silently suffering.

When I spoke alongside the Norwegian Foreign Minister at the largest political event in 2018 I concluded with this https://t.co/t7Iz5F4PyS great to see Indo-Norwegian collaboration progressing both in the Beaches and in the Oceans as predicted https://t.co/WOvPucPxnc
