Benchmarks and $/M tokens are the wrong way to measure progress toward AGI.

The metric that really matters is general tasks solved per watt-hour.

The frontier is about more intelligence from the same amount of energy.

@chandanaveli The model hallucinates A LOT, as you can see from your own recording. You can make it work but you'll end up spending close to Rs. 20 which can be run in Rs. 4-5

@aviralgarg05 haha, nice!

[vatsal @thisisvatsal]

@chandanaveli You can try out sarvam models with your API key on https://t.co/yZr7wrFC8s

It is open source as well 😁

[vatsal @thisisvatsal]

@BigVioletcow @SarvamAI I'm surprised this is getting heat in comments. It's actually really simple to prove it's a fork and refactor.

@rex09883 @getpiercode You can grep over the binary, you'll find a lot of codex refs they have migrated to sarvam (CODEX_ → SARVAM_ rename) with some extra code on top.

I'll be surprised if they ever open source this cli and proving that it's not a fork.

Imagine OpenAI displaying how good Codex is with Claude Fable 5. Just wrong.

@getpiercode started as an attempt to make Sarvam AI's models more usable through better harness engineering.

That's the product they should've showcased.

A research lab's CLI should demonstrate how its own models benefit from the harness.

Benchmarking competing models on a forked CLI doesn't really tell that story, it shifts the spotlight away from your own work.

Insane stuff at sarvam epoch.

Just a couple chart crimes away from frontier status.

Where’s GLM 5.2 on other harnesses??

[Mehul Mohan @mehulmpt]

One of the worst things you can do as a lab building AI models is to pitch ANOTHER AI model in a harness you built (?)

Sorry but wtf is this slide even? Makes zero sense

[vatsal @thisisvatsal]

@IndraVahan They are a research lab, hopefully they become frontier lab in coming years.

@SarvamAI @SarvamForDevs great job accepting a registration literally two days prior to the event 👏

The whole promise of AGI was that we wouldn't need routers, workflows, or skills anymore. Yet here we are

I just got an investor update from a nuclear reactor startup that measures their LOIs in gigawatts. That's a new one.

As everything slowly begins to sink-in, and after finally getting some sleep last night, I wanted to share a small personal note…✍️

The first call I made after Vikram-1 successfully reached orbit was to my Dad.

He is the man who made my journey possible—with dreams for me far bigger than the ones I had for myself, and by simply never giving up on me.

Until my 8th standard, I was a bad student. I scored 51 marks in Maths and even failed another subject. Back then, I could never have imagined that I would one day make it to an IIT—or have the privilege of contributing to India’s first privately developed rocket reaching orbit, making India only the third country in the world to achieve this.

When I called him after the launch, he just cried.

And cried.

He couldn’t speak a single word.

But I understood every word he couldn’t say.

I managed to hold back my tears when Vikram-1 reached orbit. But somehow, writing this, I can’t.

Thank you, Dad. ❤️

And a big shout-out to every dad who dreams big for their children—and never gives up on them. 🙏

P.S. A picture with Dad from one of my birthdays after starting @SkyrootA.

State backed infowar and military run psyops can't be beaten only by concerned citizens and freelance patriots working overtime online. Even if they try, infiltrated and influenced SM platforms drown their voices and amplify the other side.

- MIB needs someone dedicated looking into infowar, psyops, and social media manipulation.

- A SM & Media monitoring, research, and rapid response cell.

- SM companies on tight leash and facing real repercussions of allowing spread of fake, AI, racist, or dehumanizing narratives against India and Indians worldwide.

- MEA must be tasked with taking up propaganda and anti-India news by infiltrated state media of partner countries and anti-India propaganda in their local social media.

- Military run infowar cell that can not just defend but go on the offensive to shut up many anti-India digital operations.
