We’ve partnered with @OpenAI Academy to launch free courses on AI Agents! This kicks off OpenAI’s AI literacy program in India, announced at their Delhi event with support from the @OfficialINDIAai & @GoI_MeitY Huge thanks to @AshwiniVaishnaw, @abhish18, @pragyamisra & @Alexnavar!

@jainysh Time: Sunday, March 8, 12:00 PM. Location: North Bangalore.

@geeksiddhant Hey Siddhant, I am interested, but can you share me the time and location details please? I couldn’t find one on the registration page as well as locate 100x HQ on google maps.

We're opening up a limited number of spots for an invite-only Build & Ship experience at 100xEngineers HQ in Bengaluru, this Sunday, March 8th. This is not a meetup. This is not a talk. This is a full-day build session where you go from idea to shipped product before you leave. We're looking for builders, designers, PMs, founders, engineers, who have been sitting on an idea and need the right room to finally make it real. Here's how the day works: - You arrive at our office in the morning with your idea. - You spend the day building alongside other builders and our team. - By evening, you've shipped a working v1. No lectures. No slides. Just building. Along the way, you'll also get a look inside how we actually work: → Our Content Team will walk you through the AI-powered workflows they used to scale our channel from 0 to 1M. → Our R&D Team will give you a sneak peek at our in-house AI employees running 24/7 and the projects we're building right now. We're keeping this intentionally small, limited seats, application-based. If you're in Bangalore and you've been meaning to build something with AI, this is the day to stop thinking about it and start shipping. P.S. You don't need to be an AI engineer to show up. You just need an idea and the willingness to build.

@MohapatraHemant AI didn't create a new kind of engineer. It revealed what engineering was supposed to be before we industrialised it into narrow lanes. This has been our core belief at 100xEngineers.

The next 10 years in AI are going to be very, very engineer-led. To get the right ROI from AI, engineers will have to do EVERYTHING. In one of our pre IPO cos, engineers write the code using AI, but engineers are also sitting in support calls & "agentifying" it. Engineers are plugging into marketing & sales functions and injecting AI into it. Same for product, design, etc. Frankly this has been the only way AI (1) has delivered ROI (2) led to sticky adoption within functional teams (3) in a short time frame. There is a new concept of what I call "internally deployed engineers" that is really necessary to take these magical but brittle tools and fit it to specific purposes for an enterprise. The value and importance of an engineer has never been higher, but the value of a creative, high empathy engineer is at the absolute peak right now because they can be very effective change agents within the orgs and be the strategic secret tool that puts the company ahead of all others. If you have these engineers, do everything you can to keep them around.

@paraschopra Happiness is peace in motion, peace is happiness at rest. x.com/naval/status/1…

You can't think your way to happiness. Happiness is found in action, in movement, in flow. When you feel down, don't ruminate. Act. Do the next task.

@gregisenberg We are doing this in India. Incubated 9 AI first bootstrap businesses in last two years.

my dream is to build this so i’m putting it out there. what does an "alt business school" look like? business school is broken. case studies from the 90s, professors who’ve never shipped, debt that takes a decade to crawl out of. it doesn’t answer the real question: how do you learn to actually build and sell something in 2026? YC is incredible, but it trains you to raise venture, hire fast, and swing for unicorns. and there's only 500 companies per year. what about the other path? the indie one. the profitable one. the path where you can own a few cash-flowing apps, live comfortably, and keep your freedom. the path of jason fried, pieter levels etc what would that program look like? courses like: 1/ vibe coding: how to spin up an mvp with bolt, lovable, claude code etc. 2/distribution engineering: how to make a single tweet or tiktok drive 10k signups. content pipelines, repurposing systems, and paid amplification. 3/ short form 101: how to write scripts (hook, problem, solution, cta), film and edit that . light, sound, editing shortcuts. 4/ ai as leverage: using llms for market research, lead gen, onboarding flows, and customer support. how to run a “20-person company” with two humans. 5/ cashflow math: unit economics, churn, ltv vs cac. the difference between ramen profitable and dead. 6/ community design: turning customers into a movement. discord, circle, whatsapp groups and the subtle mechanics that make people show up every day. 7/ pricing psychology: anchoring, charm pricing, the $29 → $99 jump. how tiny tweaks change revenue curves. 8/ retention mechanics: streaks, leaderboards, habit loops. why duolingo feels addictive and your app feels forgettable. 9/ distribution through ai search (geo) and ASO: how to get your site embedded in chatgpt/perplexity/gemini answers and shown up in app store search. 10/ narrative & brand: why story is a moat. how to write copy people quote back to you. building brand assets that arescroll stopping. 11/ weekly sprints where you launch, test, kill, and double-down. you leave with a live product, with customers, not a diploma. this is the “alt business school” l i wish existed. no suits, no debt, no case studies about get in 1987. just the tools, tactics, and reps to build modern businesses that work. I know this wouldnt be the best social experience. But for people who have the drive, this would be a solid option for them. The ones who can’t sleep at night because until they make wealth and get a kick out of happy customers in a niche. I’m not sure the model, how many people, where it would be. but id like it to see it affordable, and I think there is room for thousands of companies per year from this program. why i care about this problem I know that building a bootstrapped changed my life. Instead, I moved to Silicon Valley, spent 10 years building venture-backed startups. It was super fun, but wish I got into profitable, cash-flowing software startups from the get-go. Less risk, and there’s life changing opportunity. one day i’ll build this. I believe this is the GREATEST time in history to start a company It does feel like it should exist now for that reason even though I'm not ready yet/have got my hands full. What do you think?

This jewellery is custom designed by the AI that our student @nischitsuri99 has built.

AI combined with advanced 3D printing unlocks mass personalization for physical products at costs and scale previously impossible. Incumbents, constrained by legacy systems and slow cycles, will lag in adopting this shift. AI-first startups can leapfrog, reimagining design, manufacturing, and delivery from the ground up. We could see zepto/blinkit like players emerging in this space very soon. This convergence will not just disrupt, it will redefine categories and mint the next market leaders.

We also discussed MatterGen, a generative model for designing new materials, and Aurora, a foundation model of the atmosphere that enables rapid weather and air-quality forecasts. Check out the full interview here: youtu.be/uDPFhKE5-QU?si…

I spoke to Bonnie Kruft, Deputy Director @MSFTResearch about how people without traditional research backgrounds can work on breakthroughs like BioEmu.

Let me show you why making a movie of a protein could unlock the next breakthrough in medicine using AI.
