@harshmadhusudan Is it possible to think beyond money while doing anything in life? Do you think Hinton was after money while building the foundations of AI? in the West ppl build things 1st, then think of monetising. We are opposite: think of money 1st, then do jugaad work to get the money.
@pangram Interesting, do you use Common Crawl dataset in your training? Wondering how you ensure your classification results are consistent across multiple releases?
@ShashiTharoor@NAR_Handle This argument would apply to any other technology, but not for AI models that are capable of improving themselves. Old world economics may not be relevant. This may affect America negatively in the short term, but long-term gains are too big to share the tech with every country.
@anaidasultana This one sums it up perfectly.
In a couple of years the so called "human capital advantage" that India supposedly has will amount to nothing because millions of AI's running in some datacentre in Virginia will do the same work.
@harshmadhusudan Nehru-card is long past its expiration. India stands on a foundation of sticks and is fast losing/already lost its human capital; and now human capital is no longer the deciding factor with millions of frontier intelligences working for US/China.
@kishorelive If anything it will be the opposite. They'll keep those non-citizen frontier researchers, and not let them fly away to their countries of origin with their expertise.
The scariest part of this whole story is the dystopia looming on the horizon.
It is the way the US government is literally creating a caste system based on access to intelligence. This is even no longer a divide between rich and poor. It is a divide between those who are allowed to think at the frontier level, accelerate science and medicine, create breakthrough technologies and those who simply happen to be citizens of another country.
Dario with all his talk about control, now looks like a pathetic hypocrite. First they sing songs about «benefit for all of humanity» and then that «humanity» suddenly shrinks to the borders of the United States.
This is a new kind of Iron Curtain. Digital. Intellectual. And if they are testing this on Anthropic, who knows who they will come for tomorrow
This will be the situation in a decade if US/China restrict access to SOTA AI to the rest of the world. Exponential gains in healthcare, material science, etc. will leap-frog their civilisations, while others will have to choose btwn becoming vassals and jungle-tribe equivalent.
@PriyabrataKabi1@India_Policy If India doesn't use them, in a few years the difference between China/US and India will be similar to today's humans looking down from a plane towards a tribe in the Amazon jungle. Understand exponential progress and recursive self improvement.
@neorevolt Can't expect a greedy person like Trump to reverse a ban. Also LLMs have a genuine first mover advantage in healthcare, material science, and other fields. Why would they release that tech to all countries. Recursively self improving models are like nuclear technology now.
@TVMohandasPai Did 50/60bn$ AI come out of the blue? China/US built their own compute and cloud infra then built social media the used that data to advance ML research and then built LLMs. At each step US/China made profit which they now spend on advanced AI. Ur company slept through every step
Why do Indian companies always go running to the govt? I've never seen a US tech CEO do this. They build their own stuff and make it so advanced that govt intervenes only to regulate. Here it is the opposite. These guys want the govt to hand hold them.
PM @narendramodi Sir we need an India AI Mission under you with @NandanNilekani as vice chair and others from the private sector and govt. to Help India tackle the AI Revolution. We are way behind and need a national mission to get going quickly. Existing govt programs are too slow, way too small to make any large impact. We need an annual 50000 cr fund for deep tech and AI, a 200,000 cr ELGS Guarantee Fund to build Hyper cloud, hardware and chips. @AshwiniVaishnaw@nsitharaman@PiyushGoyal@FinMinIndia@RBI We need a Very Large National Mission. @AmitShah@amitmalviya

The most advanced AI models needs 50/60b $, huge investments in Hyper cloud, and many years! No country apart from US/ China can arbor do it like them. People who comment loosely need to understand this
@TVMohandasPai You talk as though AI came out of the blue. China/US built their own compute and cloud infra which brought social media which brought data which brought ML which advanced to LLMs. At each step US/China made profit which they now spend on AI. India slept through every single step.
I really hope that US and China ban access to all AI for everyone. AI has no use for humans other than pushing the frontiers in healthcare, physics and mathematics. It has no good use as a general commodity.
The difference between how bad the world actually is and how good it could be is enormous. Today, as Musk becomes a trillionaire, I’m pretty overcome with sadness.
