Someone writing small cheques into American AI labs, doing PR tours about how they “backed the future” probably shouldn’t be the loudest voice lecturing everyone on what India must do after the Fable news. For those of us actually building models from scratch across modalities, the bottlenecks are not a breaking headline or a geopolitical event. We live them every day, data, compute, talent, inference, distribution, and relentless execution. You don’t wake up one morning, see a model get pulled down internationally, and suddenly discover the importance of sovereign AI. At @rumik_ai we’ve always believed in owning our stack and building foundational capabilities ourselves. Soon, we’ll be open-sourcing India’s first expressive TTS model with deep code-switching support across Hindi, Hinglish, and multiple Devanagari languages. Not because it’s fashionable, but because we genuinely believe India can build world-class AI infrastructure and models. What the ecosystem needs isn’t more hindsight experts chasing engagement after every headline. It needs patient builders, conviction, long-term capital, and VCs who help create enduring AI companies instead of pretending to be the smartest AI researchers on Twitter. India doesn’t have a talent problem. It has a conviction problem.
Looking for a team of 10-12 cracked researchers & engineers to build a new AI Lab in India. Funding and compute secured. DMs open.

why isn't there an upwork where people can submit their head mounted recording of task they do and get paid? rather than whatever every company is trying to do

most people assume muP = safe learning rate transfer. true, but historically only across model width and depth. when you change your batch size or total token duration, standard heuristics get you close, but they aren't exact. a new paper by Bruno et. al completely changes this.

you remember who was with you at the worst of times and who wasnt
Anthropic’s last round was apparently a bloodbath behind the scenes. A GP at a prominent fund had dinner with Dario three times before their allocation was slashed to zero. At least four other tier-one funds got pulled at the last minute. Their crime? Passing on the Series B, the hardest round Dario ever had to raise (led by Spark). In venture conviction is all that counts.

next time you come to @rumik_ai hackathon, i want you to build something like this build for fun
Never hosting a hackathon again… Bro built an AI agent that doom scrolls and changes your algo for you. Oh and if you’re ever down bad just turn on baddie-mode 💀

Hey @sam_paech URGENT! The github eq3bench and official eq3leaderboard models are VERY out of sync So like if I want to try local reproduction how do I even do this?

"when users spend 50 minutes on your app sharing feelings they won't tell anyone else, do you feel the same responsibility a therapist does for their patients?" team rumik is building a safe space as an emotional companion. there are 3 things we've put focus on for our platform. watch the full video to know what they are.

also, i went to @rumik_ai's hack, and it was genuinely one of the best experiences i've had. they have a great team and it is really fascinating to see India being on the world map, not through another GPT wrapper startup, but actually as a great product going neck to neck with others. @lets_dig_deeper you got both a great team, and an amazing product. kudos to you! @thepushkarp's insight really helped me catch a direction to where i was going with my project. it was nice to see @kirat_tw, whose videos are discussed in my circle religiously, live. will be telling more about what i built very soon (just a quick few updates left). hope y'all will like it :) really excited for Slik V2! also you guys should check out rumik.ai/research for sure!! they are doing some crazy work and i got to learn a lot. thanks for having me! (hope i can still use the Silk credits i got)
