@shantanugoel @atomberg_tech I have received many such AI calls in the last few days. My screening question: "What is the square root of 16?". Most AI voice agents actually answer that. Then I just get them to burn tokens (e.g. "calculate the largest 999-digit prime number").

Bought an @atomberg_tech fan recently. The fan itself, installation etc went great! Got an interesting feedback call which was AI, but the provider company also added fake background callcenter noise in it as if other customer care folks are talking to other people in the background. Took me a while to realize it was AI (mainly because the AI itself was problematic and was very delayed in understanding the response)

Board exams are supposed to reward merit. But what happens when the digital system deciding the future of millions of students may itself be vulnerable? A 19-year-old cybersecurity researcher claims he found serious flaws in CBSE’s On-Screen Marking portal, the system used to evaluate nearly one crore answer sheets in 2026. While there is no public evidence that marks were manipulated, the disclosures raise urgent questions about accountability, transparency, and trust in India’s digital education systems. Because when systems handling students’ futures fail, the consequences are very real.

UPI AutoPay is a masterclass in convenience, but the industry must guard against the "mobile VAS trap" of 15 years ago. Opaque opt-ins and hidden cancellation loops might juice short-term metrics, but they destroy systemic trust. Frictionless tech needs flawless transparency. Let's self-regulate before the regulators do it for us. 💳🇮🇳

Why is the West not curious on the great Indian 🇮🇳 civilization? This week Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited Norway. The government rolled out the red carpet. King Harald invited for lunch. All bigwigs of Norwegian business turned up. This is of course as it should be at such a historic visit. Rather different was media. No curiosity, no real attempt to understand India. When the third most powerful man in the world visits Norway, you may expect some real interest? An attempt to understand the world’s third largest economy, a global green leader, one of the world’s brightest civilizations?? It’s not that Norway is overrun with visit at this level. Last Indian top visit was Indira Gandhi in 1983. Last Chinese president visit was 1996, last American president was 2009. Here are some taste bits from Norwegian media: * Aftenposten the largest newspaper printed a caricature of Modi as a snake charmer, many found it racist and derogatory. The accompanying article (written by an otherwise brilliant journalist) described Modi as a “slightly annoying man” and simply showcased that India is not high on the papers reading lists. * Norsk rikskringkasting (NRK), the state broadcaster, explained “why prime minister Støre is clearing his desk to receive Modi”. From everyone outside Norway I got exactly the opposite question: Why did Modi use his valuable time in such a small and insignificant place? * Dagsavisen, a left of center daily, sent a young journalist to throw questions after Modi - claiming that India is 157 on a global democracy ranking. When a ranking is so contrary to common sense - why doesnt she ask those who created the ranking why they spread such nonsense? I am not aware of one Norwegian journalist closely following India. NOT ONE! How can the public learn more? Unless you believe democracy only fits a handful of small, homogenous, ultra rich western nations, India is the miracle of democracy. The large, complex, lingustically and religiously diverse nation with many poor people - which has etablished a vibrant democracy and is much less violent than Europe or America. India can in fact make a claim to be the worlds most homegrown and impressive democracy. We are entering the Asian century. Unless we Europeans become more curious - to civiliazation, history, politics and economy in the Global South - we will become the big losers of history.

@anoopcodes Not just first world sir. India too has a massive illegal immigration problem.

Immigration problems are the problems of a first world country. Because nobody wants to emigrate into a second or third world country. It’s perfectly reasonable for first world countries to tighten the immigration laws.

You want to root for the “good rich” people. Capital allocation matters. We need more people like Nithin Kamath who are allocating capital meaningfully rainmatter.com/portfolio/

Wishing you success @sanjeevsanyal in enacting this “common sense” law.. Here is hoping that one day soon , we all get liberated to focus on what actually matters .. Make India competitive rather than continue fighting the demons of a socialist past ..

@sanjeevsanyal @AakankshaArora5 Thank you for taking this up. It would be fantastic if a high touch point process such as GST registration, Aadhar address update, marriage registration, rent agreements were to be simplified. Very high impact. 🙏

My latest EAC-PM working paper: "How to do Process Reform: Case Study of IEPFA" (co-authored with @AakankshaArora5). The paper lays out step-by-step how process reforms were implemented at IEFPA over the last one year. As a result, the system is now able to do more approvals in a month than it was earlier doing in a year. Indeed, the backlog will be fully cleared in the next six months. This case study is part of our effort to document government re-engineering efforts so that they can be taught and replicated across the system. eacpm.gov.in/wp-content/upl…

@PiyushGoyal @sanjeevsanyal Not to mention local GST officers questioning why the address on the electricity bill of the landlord won't match the Aadhar. CA office is asking for Aadhar and PAN of house owner, and 2 witnesses. Apparently GST officers reject GST registration without that?

@PiyushGoyal If you want to help please remove the GST registration requirement , at least for IT exports or simplify it. Why do I have to get a NoC from the owner to work on my computer over the internet. Please stop this absurdity. cc @sanjeevsanyal

Is it more secure to download a PDF via the app instead of a download button? How is it secure to buy the policy outside of the app? @ACKOIndia Can we please stop with this BS? I thought you were different.

@ACKOSupport How is it more secure if it's via the app? And why isn't there an option to request a copy to my email?
