Is Madhur Bhandarkar trolling @yrf over its stupid spy films glorifying Pakistan with an advice on how to make 'realistic' spy movie OR is he trolling Queen Khan over his overacting OR is he simply trolling Fart-out Akhtar?

I'm confused😂😂

I now suspect that the reason @SarvamAI was turned down by SoftBank, Prosus, a16z, General Atlantic and Accel was because they were scared of how TALENTED @pratykumar and team are and therefore wanted to deny funding for them for fear of an Anthropic competitor and competition at the global level between countries.

If you know anything about VC economics it's that every investment they make needs to at the very least have the potential to return their entire portfolio which requires a massive Total Addressable Market. In practice this rule tends to be so restrictive that you can't really afford to have any other rules, and there is little doubt that Sarvams team lacks anything but sky high potential.

They also made it a point to announce this publicly as a signal to make it harder for Sarvam to gain funding because Venture Capitalists tend to be extremely herd like in their behaviour. Making this announcement shortly before the national level restriction of Anthropic was unlikely to be an accident as it must have been heavily debated, negotiated and finalized behind closed doors before the information became public.

No biggie, the team is going to win out in the end. Because we have diversity and crowd and advanced digital infrastructure. We have an AI Talent Penetration Index which is higher than all OECD Countries. And open source needs a thriving ecosystem which we have. The headstart that Anthropic and Open AI had was a first mover advantage. What will end up mattering more is the last mover advantage - i.e. who builds out their product and ecosystem around it to use and create improvements.

Ultimately the economics of comparative advantage and token costs will push the talent network to build on the Sarvam stack not the Anthropic one. And if they try to stop NVIDIA, then the @GoI_MeitY
Semiconductor mission will only make us even stronger not weaker.

Don't be fooled by the temporary challenges, time is on our side. Bullish @SarvamAI
And Bullish India 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

India's indigenous Uttam AESA Radar has reportedly achieved a major milestone during flight trials by tracking a fighter-sized target from a distance of 240 kilometers. The target's radar signature was comparable to that of a fully loaded multirole fighter aircraft, demonstrating the radar's long-range detection capability.

Most importantly, Uttam is an indigenous system developed by Indian scientists and engineers, reflecting India's growing self-reliance in advanced defense technologies.

As India prepares for future platforms like AMCA, could Uttam AESA Radar become the foundation of the country's next generation of air combat capabilities?

Conor Neill: "18 years of school trained you to ruin conversations"

"You finish your pitch and the customer says, 'Your product is too expensive!' You arrive home, you're a few minutes late, your partner says, 'You are always late.' A dirty plate is left on the table... 'You never wash the dishes.' What do you say in this moment?"

The problem:

"Most of you... went through 14 years of school where you were taught one way to respond to questions. Teacher asks a question: 'How do you spell cats?' Student: 'C-A-T.' Teacher: 'What is the biological process called osmosis?' Student puts hand up, explains in detail the process through which cell membranes allow water to go from one side to the other."

He continues:

"For 14 years you've been taught that you receive and answer a question. If you went to university, you probably had another 3, 4 years where you gave answers to questions."

On why answering is the worst response:

"In real life, in persuasion, in getting to what the other person is really about, what their needs really are... the worst thing you can do is give an answer to a question."

He explains:

"If someone says 'your product is too expensive' and you say 'No it's not! It's only €1,000'... you've lost every chance to understand what else is behind their reasoning. If you get home and your partner says 'you're always late!' and you say 'No no no! Tuesday I definitely was here on time'... you're gonna have a crap weekend."

The insight:

"You've had 14... if not 18 years of training that you answer questions. And it's going to cause fights in your home life. It's going to cause problems at work. It means you're not selling anything. Because when someone says 'your product is too expensive'... that's not what their real issue is. When someone says 'I will have to speak to my boss'... that's not what their real issue is."

On emotion and thinking:

"When your partner says 'you're always late'... emotion goes up. And what happens? This part disconnects. The higher emotion goes... the lower thinking goes."

The implication:

"The way to make someone stupider is insult them, object to them, tell them they are wrong. When asked a question, there's an emotional reaction."

On why you must practice:

"If you don't practice this response, you're not going to be able to do it in the moment."

He lists the objections:

"'You're always late!'... 'You never wash the dishes!'... 'You never do your part of the share!'... 'Your product is too expensive!'... 'Your competitor is better!'... 'You failed us 3 years ago!'... 'I don't trust your company!' If you don't practice this habit of not giving an answer... you're not going to be able to do it in the heat of the moment."

Neill calls this "Conversation Aikido":

"Martial arts are about using the energy, the force of the opponent against them. In judo, if someone punches you, you pull their arm and allow the energy to keep flowing. In Aikido, the concept is you go towards the punch. Go towards the energy."

He explains:

"If someone punches you... if someone asks you a question... if someone objects, says you're wrong... the Aikido method is go towards and see the world from their view. In Aikido, you learn to go towards the punch, dodge it, and look... and you are seeing the world in the same direction as the person who's attacking you."

The technique:

"When you are asked a question or given an objection... say 'I understand' and repeat in your words what they're saying. Then give an open question back."

Example:

"'Your product is too expensive!' → 'I understand that money is an important factor for you. What other criteria will be used in taking this decision?'"

He adds:

"It takes some habit to start to be able to give 'I understand' and fill in good words. You will have to work on this quite a few times over the next 10 years to find the set of words that captures what the other person feels... what's behind it."

He explains with an example:

"'You're always late!' → 'I understand you feel frustrated.' 'I understand you feel let down.' Then: 'What can we do now?' 'What happened during the day?' 'What would you like to talk about?'"

On unlearning:

"This takes 14 years of it being drummed into you... 4 more, 18 if you went to university. It's gonna take you at least 18 years to get out of the habit of responding to questions with answers."

The lesson:

"We live in an uncertain world and we don't have the answers. But by giving the answer, we shut down the possibility of hearing what's really going on in the other person's mind... in the other person's business... what other things are going on."

On the 4th question:

"I guarantee that if you do it 4 times... the answer to your 4th open question begins to be the real underlying need, issue, interest of the person you're listening to."

The key to saving the environment is not looking backward, it’s moving forward.

I realized this the first time I visited Italy twenty years ago. Everything was clean and green. The rivers sparkled. The lesson for me was obvious: the answer is not underdevelopment. The answer is progress.

When China was poor, the air was so polluted that people could barely see the blue sky. Today, blue skies have returned to their cities. Development does not only create wealth, it also provides the resources needed to restore and protect the environment.

Some environmentalists want us to preserve every aspect of our biodiversity, including the mosquitoes for example, so that researchers can fly in once every ten years from their universities (which build particle accelerators and billion-dollar laboratories with their pocket money), study our ecosystems, and count how many people died from dengue outbreaks.

They want to buy our air through carbon credits. If carbon credits were such a great deal, they would be selling them to us, not the other way around.

Cleaning every river, lake, and water source in El Salvador, and ensuring they remain clean and sparkling, would cost roughly $12 billion. Where is that money supposed to come from without economic development? Carbon credits?

The path forward for our country is the path of Japan and Singapore, not the path of the Congo.

A boy was nervous as he tried to speak Portuguese in front of Cristiano Ronaldo.

When people started laughing at his mistakes, Ronaldo stopped them and said:

“Why are you laughing? He’s trying and speaking good Portuguese.”

This is why he’s the GOAT ❤️🐐

A missile pierced the hull of an oil tanker near the coast of Oman, passed through multiple compartments, and became lodged inside a fuel tank. The most alarming part? The warhead had not exploded.

With hundreds of tons of fuel onboard, even a small mistake could have triggered a catastrophic disaster. Responding to the emergency, the Indian Navy deployed a specialist Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) team that successfully located, rendered safe, and removed the unexploded warhead without any casualties or secondary explosions.

The operation highlights the critical role modern navies play not only in warfare but also in preventing maritime disasters and maintaining security across the Indian Ocean Region.
