Logical Singh ~ Ayachi

Hi
An open Mind and lover of truth - that's me !
IIT grad building cool AI stuff
satirist

[Logical Singh ~ Ayachi @luvsingh]

i'm going to write a bit of analogies here which i find useful as a mental model or to slip in between conversations

[Logical Singh ~ Ayachi @luvsingh]

We take pride in saying that Google and Microsoft is headed by Indians. What we should take pride is that we have our own search engine, our own operating system, our own cloud infra, and our own AI models, like China does. That is true sovereignty.

[Dr. Deepessh Divaakaran (Dr. DD) @md_deepesh]

India has been running a scam on itself for 35 years.
Not the West's scam.
Ours.

Designed elsewhere.
Approved here.
Celebrated everywhere.

1991.
India called it Liberalization.

The newspapers called it reform.
The economists called it courage.

History may call it something else.

Because almost nobody read the fine print.

The real deal was never written in a budget speech.

India would export its brightest minds.
West would keep the ownership.
India would keep the applause.

And everyone would call it progress.
The handshakes were signed.
The champagne was poured.

The story began.

IITs expanded.
Campuses grew.
Taxpayer money flowed.

Generation after generation was trained.
Not to build Indian technology empires.
But to become the world's most reliable technology labour force.

America noticed something before India did.
The Indian mind was the most valuable raw material on Earth.

More valuable than oil.
More valuable than rare earth minerals.
More valuable than factories.
And most loyal too.

So they took it.
Legally.
Cunningly.
At industrial scale.

IIT graduates landed in Silicon Valley.
They wrote the code.
Designed the systems.
Built the servers.
Engineered the chips.
Created the platforms.

India supplied the brains.
West kept the products.
West kept the patents.
West kept the power.

Then came the second act.
The twist nobody talks about.

The same technology came back home.
The same code.
The same servers.
The same platforms.
The same dependency.

Only, now it arrived wearing a different costume.

Digital India.
Cloud Revolution.
AI Transformation.

NTT.
Japan.
18 facilities.
~265 MW.

STT GDC.
Singapore.
30 Locations.
~390 MW.

AWS.
America.
5 Locations.
~900 MW.

Google.
America.
~1000 MW.

Microsoft.
America.
~500 MW.

The biggest names in global data infrastructure.
Planting flags across India.

Now comes the uncomfortable part.

The hardware?
Not ours.

The operating systems?
Not ours.

The foundational AI models?
Not ours.

The cloud infrastructure?
Not ours.

The laws governing much of it?
Not ours.

The CLOUD Act 2018.
A law passed in Washington.
With consequences far beyond Washington.

If an American company owns the platform,
America can demand access under its laws.

The server location becomes secondary.
The ownership becomes everything.

And while all this was happening...

Ribbon cuttings continued.
Press conferences continued.
MoUs continued.
Awards continued.

This is the circular model nobody wants to discuss.

Fund the education.
Export the talent.
Let west build the platforms.

Import the platforms.
Pay annual fees forever.

Rename the dependency.
Call it sovereignty.

35 years: No sovereign operating system.
35 years: No globally dominant Indian chip platform.
35 years: No foundational AI Ecosystem.

But we became experts at celebrating consumption.
Experts at rebranding dependency.
Experts at confusing usage with ownership.

The British took the cotton.
And sold back the cloth.

This time we shipped the brains.
Then bought back the intelligence.
On subscription.

History has a cruel sense of humour.

Sometimes a nation loses its sovereignty through invasion.

Sometimes it signs it away.
Then calls it reform.

@namo_ind @InfraEye @Mrsinha @IndianGems_ Losses on an individual stock is fine, but this is on the level of fraud, which is different from a stock loss.

[Logical Singh ~ Ayachi @luvsingh]

@InfraEye @Mrsinha @IndianGems_ LIC mainly manages and invests money collected from millions of policyholders across India.
The GoI is also the majority owner of LIC, and since government revenues come largely from taxpayers, there is an indirect taxpayer stake in LIC as well.

[Logical Singh ~ Ayachi @luvsingh]

This is how retail investors are doomed

[🚨Indian Gems @IndianGems_]

Masterstroke: India to eliminate capital gains tax only for foreigners; Indians can continue paying taxes for nation building.

[Logical Singh ~ Ayachi @luvsingh]

@Mrsinha @IndianGems_ are you a joke? even if loss is 290 cr, it's still taxpayer's money that got lost in this, along with countless retail investors.
SEBI should've done a better job here

Why was @therantinggola account suspended again? It takes time and effort to build such following. This is pure dictatorship. @Meta is complicit in this

Check Anjana Om Kashyap's TL.

Yesterday, her video slamming YouTube educators went viral. Everyone criticized her. IT Cell remained silent.

2-3 hrs ago, suddenly every IT Cell troll tweeted in her support and Anjana RTd all those tweets.

Organic or paid PR?? You decide.
