Very disappointing experience with @montblanc_world. My fountain pen stopped working, I paid a substantial amount to repair it, and now it has failed again—with another costly repair quoted. Pens costing a fraction of the price have been far more reliable.

India doesn't need to win every AI race.
It needs to win the races that create long-term strategic advantage.
The biggest opportunity may not be another LLM—it may be building the AI ecosystem behind every future model.

Interesting example from Bajaj Finance
AI advantage may not go to the loudest companies doing demos, but to those embedding AI deeply into execution, risk, speed, and customer experience.
If you don’t adopt AI meaningfully, your competitors will.

Mythos is not the threat.
Slow defense is.
AI is shrinking cyberattack timelines from weeks to hours, while many organizations still respond at human speed.
Cybersecurity now needs resilience at machine speed.

What is under the bonnet is so difficult to comprehend. World has new rules of doing business. BYD story , do not know how true but rattle the mind. youtu.be/tS_fJJxMjn4?si=5lGd… via @YouTube
AI is not about access anymore.
It’s about how deeply you use it.
Productivity is no longer linear.
It scales with AI consumption.
“AI First” is not a tool choice.
It’s a strategic shift.

The next era of productivity won't be won by "General AI" in a sidebar. It will be won by AI native to the app’s DNA.
Microsoft’s lack of a foundational model for Word, Excel, and PPT is a gift to startups. Reliability and velocity require native integration, not an API bridge.
India isn't late to the AI race, but we aren't winning it yet.
To lead, we must move from "Proof of Concepts" to "Production Reality." My latest musing on where we really stand beyond the summit applause:

What are we upto? and where all this is going?
🏆 We're thrilled to announce that Meta FAIR’s Brain & AI team won 1st place at the prestigious Algonauts 2025 brain modeling competition.
Their 1B parameter model, TRIBE (Trimodal Brain Encoder), is the first deep neural network trained to predict brain responses to stimuli across multiple modalities, cortical areas, and individuals. The approach combines pretrained representations of several foundational models from Meta – text (Llama 3.2), audio (Wav2Vec2-BERT from Seamless) and video (V-JEPA 2) – to predict a very large amount (80 hours per subject) of spatio-temporal fMRI brain responses to movies acquired by the Courtois NeuroMod project

When the US blocks the river, India finds a new channel.
From Russian oil deals to fresh trade routes—India is reworking the global map.
Tariffs or opportunity? You decide.

India struck hard and fast in Operation Sindoor. But did it change Pakistan’s playbook — or reinforce it?

Economics teachers right now: 🕺📉📈
The tariff turmoil is dropping more real-time case studies than a semester-long textbook.
Trade wars, bond yields, policy reversals—economics is the real winner here.
Class is in session. 🍿

Trump hits pause on tariffs (except China) — was it a rethink or tactic all along?
Bond markets blinked, strategy shifted.
I unpack it all in my blog update from yesterday:

Big tariffs make noise. Smart tariffs make change.
A 5% phased approach could’ve added $190B to the U.S. economy — without the inflation bomb.
My latest blog explores how less could’ve been more.

The recent startup debate in India is less about blame and more about focus. Instead of rhetoric, let’s talk about outcomes, systemic change, and spotlighting builders already shaping the future.

India doesn’t lack ambition. It lacks alignment—between builders, govt, academia, and investors. Fix that, and we’ll build at global scale.
