We had collected thousands of hours of speech data, we needed to transcribe the speech to text. Teams were waiting for GPU credits etc. I was talking to the team at an internship meet where there were some 300 interns. I saw that each intern was carrying a laptop. There was compute sitting in front of us. I told the Viswam team why cant we use the compute of the laptops to transcribe the audio or convert pdfs to text using OCR. If we have 30,000 interns and each student contributes 1 hour of compute, we have 30,000 hours per day :)
Viswam team created simple tools in a day to access the data and assign it based on compute donated and do the transcription. Below is the leaderboard till yesterday. Community FTW :)
While I have been busy with some things, the teams at Viswam have been rocking. The community driven effort is going full throttle. Data set contributions across the Telugu states so far.
We will be making some announcements next week.

Honoured to be part of roundtable "Community Sourced Model to Build Al models for India" @SwechaFSMI#aidays2025 will be sharing learning about the @InstructLab LAB (Large-scale Alignment for chatBots) methodology, detailed in the research paper arXiv:2403.01081. This technique employs a novel synthetic data-based alignment tuning & Taxonomy-Driven Curation: Instead of relying on unstructured data contributions, InstructLab utilizes a hierarchical taxonomy to organize the knowledge and skills the model should possess.

Looking forward to this. I have two key provocations for this discussion:
- One is a true story I'm going to tell on AI and privacy (which will and should shock people), and
- The other is a hypothesis I wrote a year and half ago about AI and the media that is (unfortunately) yet to be proven wrong.
