The best spy film in this country is led by a woman, coincidentally the same actress in the picture.

Cook me, but you cannot cast a woman as a spy in your film and expect me to watch it

Fresh factory’s Instagram story from today. Love how people will say just fucking anything without even being there. 😭
Congratulations to Bangalore bros on pioneering the first farmer's market without one farmer in sight

Ok, so here is my take on the Fable ban, sovereign AI, Sarvam, etc. The event is interesting as it has implications from many perspectives. For AI users, it is clear that you should not confuse access with ownership, or adoption itself as advantage. And if the most significant tech differentiator you are leveraging has external control loops, then you have to accept you are vulnerable. For AI talent, it is now a precedent that you would be *seen* aligning to national interests more than company interests. And even if its just a whim for now, this trend will be hard to reverse as the world gets more automated… For AI labs, their offerings will be stratified - general purpose AI would be available as utility, but frontier AI would be gated. This is a fantastic business model for labs - *democratized* AI sucks in all the data liquidity of the world which is locked in higher margin frontier offerings. I think for the world to be a better place, all three of the above are bad vectors. We need to have more countries and companies owning their own destinies. And in the post AI world, that means being able to use and improve AI systems within their own perimeters - what one may call Sovereign AI. At Sarvam, Sovereign AI in India was the founding thesis a couple of years back, and continues to remain the core operating principle. From our vantage point, it is super clear that India will build, leverage, and create massive business value and societal impact with sovereign AI. The following is precisely how we at Sarvam are contributing to make that happen.

The new class system, stratified once again by intelligence, just of a different kind
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. Read our full statement: anthropic.com/news/fable-myt…

We need a blood donation camp where all Marwadis and gujjus donate blood to the rest of us. Cause according to the guy in the next table, business is only in their khoon.

The whole case for sovereign AI in one press release. The US just demonstrated it will flip the switch on frontier access with zero notice and no explanation. If you're building anything downstream of a US frontier model, you watched your dependency get proven live.

Somebody was trying to set me up with a guy saying “he really lights up the room yk” I’m just like but I already light up the room, why do we need two people to do that. You need only one person to switch on the lights in a room na?

We need a party for 25 year olds where they can just come and talk about Wisdom tooth pain and how they can’t extract just yet cause it’s not fully grown :)

If I have more than 10 messages on WhatsApp when I wake up, no one is getting a reply. Except my grand mom and grand dad. (They say gm to me everyday)
