Shri @gchikermane speaks on subjects as diverse as language, dharma, economic reforms and PM Modi. Absolutely fascinating conversation!
Bharat’s ancient civilisation is going through a physical-intellectual-spiritual momentum in 21st century modern India.
Enjoyed this conversation with @ArjunSKadian that explores our renascent nation in transition, from past grandeur to future glory.

ORF के Diplomat Diaries के तहत भारत में नीदरलैंड्स की राजदूत Marisa Gerards के साथ एक विशेष संवाद आयोजित किया गया।
चर्चा में भारत–नीदरलैंड्स संबंधों की बदलती दिशा, दोनों देशों के बीच बढ़ते रणनीतिक सहयोग और द्विपक्षीय रिश्तों को रणनीतिक स्तर तक ले जाने की संभावनाओं पर विचार-विमर्श हुआ।

#ExportControl just changed shape. Not chips or tech, not code. It’s People. Foreign nationals, including a US lab’s own employees, locked out of frontier models overnight, wherever they sit.
Hmm… If talent itself is the leak, ring fencing tech gets a lot harder.

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

Genuine query:
They USDINR is at about 95.17-95.67 today (13/06). The RBI governor has commented that the INR might be undervalued. In such an environment, if I were to start investing in foreign equities, by the time I redeem it, the INR appreciation will eat into my returns.

Looking forward to this conversation with Vishwanath Alluri ji this evening.
Jiddu Krishnamurti was one of the first Indian philosophers I read in college.
So, this is equally about me returning to the universe of those memories and ideas, after decades.
See you there…

At IIC today @gchikermane will be in conversation with Vishwanath Alluri, secretary of Krishnamurti foundation, on his book The Enlightened Manager. A book that is creating waves worldwide 🤩👏 @HarperCollinsIN

The @RBI kept rates steady displaying confidence that inflation will not to sticky.
@PibMospi released GDP data for FY26 that shows a growth momentum.
Will these macros change this year?

Retail investors, please do not pay attention to merchants of doom that are on every channel and social media handle.
If you have followed the rules of investing:
1. Asset allocation between debt and equity
2. Allocation within equity
3. Foreign allocation (for larger and more experienced investors)
4. Small allocation to gold
5. Rebalance when asset allocation goes off or fresh investments in the losing asset class.
You should be doing fine. Portfolio returns with this should be still above taxes and inflation.

AI’s exponential progress has created an urgency that the policymaking process is ill-equipped to handle: insights for policymakers in this future-foretelling essay by @DarioAmodei.
But his solution around strategic affairs seems blind to today’s reality.

Coalition of democracies is an idea that died on 20 January 2025.
Today, great power lines between Xi’s China and Trump’s US have blurred.
Xi used democracies and their processes to infiltrate the same democracies.
Trump is destroying what’s left of democratic values and trust.

No country should align with, or be vulnerable to, the whims of either.
Every country needs to build its own AI stack.
Sooner the safer.
So, while @DarioAmodei’s technology or policy analysis is accurate, his strategic prescriptions and extrapolations are behind times.
