Infosys is maximising shareholder value through dividends. AI can wait.

ideaForge has just drawn Rs 151 crore from the RDI Fund, the ₹1 lakh crore patient-capital pool the Modi government set up last year to rebuild Indian R&D. The fund is writing its first cheques. A few months ago, @SwarajyaMag did an in-depth story about this experiment. 🧵

The loot i am more concerned about is your brain! You are geographically challenged!

So Bharat Jodo Yatra which was a massive hit and almost changed India (as a particular section wanted us to believe), wasn't a hit after all. Crown Prince needs a new yatra! Is it Raga's coming age version.... , sorry i lost count?

Some parties dump their allies of decades for a ministerial post or two. Let's not do sermoning. Shall we?

🚨The Engineer Who Lost His Job After Pokhran Helped Build India's First AI Chip that Can Operates Without Internet In 1998, when India conducted the historic Pokhran-II nuclear tests, the world responded with sanctions. Technology restrictions tightened, foreign companies became cautious, and many Indian engineers working abroad suddenly found themselves facing barriers they had never expected. One of them was engineer Jyotis Indirabhai. At the time, he was working in Japan's semiconductor industry on advanced chip technologies. But after the sanctions that followed Pokhran, projects involving Indian engineers were disrupted, and his career path took an unexpected turn. Nearly three decades later, that same engineer has helped India achieve a breakthrough of its own. His startup, Netra Semi, has developed India's first 12-nanometer Edge AI chip, the A2000, a milestone that could significantly strengthen India's position in the global semiconductor race. To understand why this matters, one must first understand what Edge AI is. Most artificial intelligence systems rely on cloud servers located far away from the device using them. Data is collected, sent to a server, processed, and then returned. Edge AI changes that model entirely. Instead of depending on distant data centers, the AI runs directly on the device itself. Imagine a smart surveillance camera that can instantly identify suspicious activity without sending video to a remote server. Or a military drone that can analyze battlefield footage in real time and make decisions without waiting for instructions from a data center thousands of kilometers away. That is exactly what Edge AI chips are designed to do. Countries such as the United States, China, Japan, and South Korea have already deployed such chips across industries ranging from defense and robotics to smart cities and advanced manufacturing. Now India has entered that arena with an indigenous design of its own. The journey behind the A2000 chip is equally remarkable. After leaving Japan, Indirabhai spent nearly two decades in the United States, working with some of the world's most advanced semiconductor companies. During that period, he contributed to the development of processors, wireless technologies, GPUs, and AI hardware while building a portfolio of valuable patents. But in 2017, he returned to India with a larger mission. Rather than seeing India remain dependent on imported chips, he wanted the country to build its own semiconductor ecosystem. That vision led to the creation of Netrasemi in 2020. Over the next several years, the company developed its own AI processor architecture, vision-processing technologies, and supporting software stack. The design was eventually fabricated using advanced manufacturing facilities, culminating in the launch of the A2000 in 2026. From smart surveillance systems and industrial automation to robotics, autonomous platforms, and defense applications, the chip opens the door to a wide range of indigenous innovations.

Astrobase has built Lox Methane engine test stand. High flow rates. On the path to achieve hot fire for a Full Flow Staged Combustion (FFSC) rocket engine. This is built by Indians 🇮🇳 Frankly, India doesn’t have a talent problem in deep tech.

Claude Fable 5 has been out for a couple of days. Some projects people have already built with it:

Net security provider in IOR, Quad Partner, Strategic Ally 😂

So is Reliance, Tata, JSW, JSP. We can do well if we stop tieing every thread to Adani.

I suggest Infy shouldn't try LLM, rather focus solely on LDM (Large Dividend Model).

People replace their phones every ~4 yrs. This means there are hundreds of millions of old phones discarded each year that are still perfectly usable as computing devices. @Google in collabration with @UCSD is exploring how to turn these old phones into cloud-computing “phone clusters”. Putting phones back in service in this way can directly reduce the environmental footprint of computing by avoiding the need for further raw material extraction, and taking advantage of the embodied carbon already incurred from manufacturing these devices, and modern phones actually are already quite powerful computers.

Performative politicians should get a basic training on realised and unrealised gains.

They did it. SpaceX has now launched more satellites than the rest of humanity, combined, all time.

Which stronger words would you chose?

MA to NSCS seems to the training wheel for CDS. Gen Ghai will takeover when Gen Subramani hang his boots?

Real qom ke fucker 😂

Banks, insurance, manufacturing PSUs were nantionalised, not built ground up by Pt Nehru
