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.

Today's key AI research cluster into one story: AI is learning to fix, coordinate, and optimize itself.

Self-improvement:
- Bidirectional evolution: models improve data + training together
- DenoiseRL: reasoning models bootstrap from their own noisy prefixes
- GUI-CIDER: agents causally internalize action patterns mid-training
- Learn from weaknesses: small agents auto-specialize via failure analysis

Multi-agent + memory:
- Gamma-World: multi-agent simulation beyond two players
- MemTrace: trace LLM memory errors to root causes
- Memory as evolving connectivity, not static retrieval

Efficiency unlocks:
- 10× faster video generation
- 3× faster driving VLMs
- Native one-vision models replace encoders
- Diffusion-RWKV beats transformers on long context

Research automation:
- Chain-of-evidence for autonomous science
- Agent-generated research-level math problems
- Warning: AI narrows exploration by over-optimizing incremental progress

we are transitioning from "train better models" to "build systems that improve, coordinate, and accelerate themselves.

It’s seems like My coaching career comes to an end after 1.5 years, during which we played 5 tournaments and secured 5 podium finishes, including a Junior World Cup bronze medal.

I have heard about coaches getting fired after bad performances.
But this is the first time I am experiencing being removed to make way for a foreign coach.

The Hockey India President stated that the chief coach of the senior men’s team prefers a foreign head coach for the junior team, believing it will help develop Indian hockey from the junior level through to the senior level. Hence, the continued preference for foreign coaches —

Can’t Indian coaches develop Indian hockey?

On 07-03-2026, during a meeting with the Hon’ble Sports Minister Shri Mansukh Mandaviya, I was told, “Sreejesh, we need coaches like you to step up and lead our country as we prepare for 2036.”

However, Hockey India continues to place its trust in foreign coaches over Indian ones across all four teams.

Everyone assumes the best AI coding workflow is: let AI generate V1, then maintain it by hand.

I'm finding the opposite works better. Write the first version yourself — pour your taste and instincts into it. Then let AI handle the features, cleanup, and maintenance.

A hand-written codebase is a style guide written in code. AI reads it and extends it faithfully. Without that foundation, everything regresses toward the mean.

The human provides the soul. The AI provides the scale.

🚨 Bangladesh Cricket Board will collapse soon.

- Because of their ego, India will never tour Bangladesh again.

- Bangladeshi players will not be allowed in the IPL in the future.

- The ICC will cut down funds for the Bangladesh team.

- Bangladesh will never be able to organise ICC tournaments because of an unbalanced board.

- Bangladeshi players will not get major opportunities in professional cricket.

- Foreign players will avoid Bangladesh to stay in the good books of the BCCI.

By playing only Bangladesh Premier League, they will not even survive a year. Within a year, we will see a complete collapse or a transfer of ownership in the BCB. Either they will become pro-India and align with the BCCI, or they will stop playing cricket.

There is no IF, no BUT & no IN BETWEEN. 🇮🇳

Best career advice that I can give: Don't ever attach yourself to a person, a place, a company, an organization or a project. Attach yourself to a mission, a calling, a purpose ONLY. That's how you keep your power & your peace. It's worked pretty well for me thus far.

My brother Kumar wrote a post titled: "How patient execution beats aggressive capital" which is a must read for entrepreneurs:

https://t.co/CDQuY3thr9

Kumar started the company in Chennai that eventually became the Zoho today. Practically every senior manager at Zoho was personally recruited fresh from college and trained by Kumar back in the 1990s. Zoho would not exist without Kumar.

I want to quote this gem from his post:

"முயலும் வெல்லும் (the hare can win)

ஆமையும் வெல்லும் (the tortoise can also win)

முயலாமை என்றுமே வெல்லாது (but not trying never wins)"

The word "Muyalaamai" in Tamil combines "muyal" (rabbit or hare) and "aamai" (tortoise) and it also means "not trying" and Muyalaamai comes from the word "muyarchi" which means "effort" or "trying".

So it means "Go fast like a rabbit or go slow like a tortoise but keep trying" but the Tamil version is much more poetic.

I bought a ~$3K MacBook Pro at the @Apple Emeryville Bay Street store, but they wouldn’t let my kid use the restroom since it’s “not for customers.”
We went to @PhilzCoffee instead, they were kind, gave us the code without asking for a purchase, and I ended up buying my kid a juice.
The irony: @Apple , known for customer experience, felt cold. @PhilzCoffee showed empathy and knocked it out of the park.

[Kartik S @kasuryan]

@SanejBandgar Nice analogy ! Makes sense.
