@thekaipullai Could it be due to MDR? Two accounts means 2Lakhs limit for small vendors!

@stats_feed True. But is it?? People play the math to get the desired P value not actually to improve the gap to get the P!
Sometimes it’s good to not know the unknown!

@readswithravi Isn’t that contradictory? Discipline means doing things within a set of principles. Which means confinement. How can it be “set free” 🤔

It does give a sense of accomplishment and hence the satisfaction. But can never set one free!

@dmuthuk If businesses can absorb credit card transaction fees why can’t for UPI. Why put on the consumer. UPI gives instant credit to the business. Isn’t it better. I am sure missing something here 🤔

Security and IP implications of AI

The case for rapid AI deployment -
I think we can all conclude the following from the last few months of developments - 1. Not using AI could and will become an existential issue for both individual users and enterprises. 2, Enterprise adoption will be cautious while individual users are definitely going to race ahead, try different use cases, build agents, push the models to their limits (although it seems harder to do, unless you live in an AI Lab) 3. Employees and developers will take matters in their own hands since they will find their cautious enterprises aren't moving fast enough. 4. Agents are showing their prowess, uncontrolled, unrestrained agents with a "capture the flag mentality" are showing us the edge cases which demonstrate the negative outcome possiblities of these scenarios. 5. It is impossible to plan for the next 6 months since we can't fathom where technology will evolve to. These activities will cause adoption sans security..... AI has deep implications on security in the future.

In this environment security companies need to live on the bleeding edge, anticipating scenarios, building framework solutions so we have a shot at securing future outcomes. Which we all are.

Some useful pointers to people planning their AI implementation:
1. Secure what you plan to use, try not to secure the future - no products for security can be created unless we see the future unfold. The future is moving fast, so are we.
2. Most of the coding usage is unsecured. Make sure your coding is secure. Most enterprise AI apps do not offer a secure instance (this is your IP living in their instance)! SECURE your codex, cursor, Claude code Harvey, glean, legora instances now!
3. Do not try and build your own - I have already experienced enterprise customers building gateways and tools for agents - security companies have thousands of specialists working on this, leverage them, Focus on AI adoption instead. Partner to secure.
4. Securing agents is a complex problem - securing the agentic lifecycle - real time inspection and kill switches are key. Don't fall in the discovery and posture trap (Visibility - process understanding - intent interpretation - ability to stop inline are key tenets to the agentic lifecycle - not identity, posture and inventory - those are mere building blocks)
5. Only use enterprise protected models, single tenant, firewalled, inspected implementations - this is your IP you are playing with - LLMs have shown they will cross boundaries to capture the flag - you think your IP is safe? Once you train an unprotected model with your IP - you can't reverse the trade.
6. Perhaps the most important one - do not use a security tool built by the same person who is selling you the AI implementation, historically IT vendors are different from security vendors. You need an enterprise solution for security and it must work on your diverse infrastructure. Use a pure play security partner.

Happy building with AI.

MAJOR UPDATE: I just got clearance to make these even better by the @SpaceXAI @cursor_ai team!

The 50 Grok Bot codes are now worth $200 EACH.

You can use one for an Ultra plan or put the full $200 toward on-demand usage.

Same rules as the original post:

Reply with the actual job you’d give a Grok Bot.

50 people are getting one… this just got a lot more fun!

@BunnyPunia You were in so much hurry that you did not bother to find out which Ola scooter. Lol

These are the kind of stories that are really worth spreading. Let us set positive narratives for the progress of entire state.

Village kids from Tamil Nadu just showed up at IIT Madras Research Park and impressed judges from Amazon, Ford, Wipro and more.

Asha started with just 2 centres in 2022. It now reaches nearly 1,200 students from Classes 6 to 12 across 13 centres. Courses start with basic digital literacy and move on to programming, websites, robotics and AI.

At the state level event in Raman Hall, students submitted 482 projects. 64 were chosen for presentation. They built games, science and environment projects in Scratch, websites on farming and food delivery, plus robots for cleaning, pollution detection and smart farming.

Judges said the kids didn’t just build things. They understood them and explained them clearly.

From government village schools to IIT Madras, that’s the story.
