Perplexity fanboys will be very upset with the responses in this thread!

@dravishakatoch You should show them advanced voice mode on Chat GPT and get it to talk to them in their mother tongue…super fun!
English

@malpani Amazing!!
I would really recommend you to try Chat GPT Plus options’s advanced voice mode, can speak to it in any language (even being able to switch languages naturally on the go when u ask it to).
There is a lot of scope around getting tech like this early into kids lives.

Excited to speak at @ycombinator Startup School in London today!
Funnily enough, in 2011, I was in San Francisco, starting my former company. I went to my first Startup School at Stanford University. I actually didn't have a badge, so I designed a fake one, printed it on campus and got myself into one of the best events for startups I had ever attended. Somehow, design skills have always been part of my journey and I have been full circle. Thanks @gustaf for the invite 🙏

@asanwal Cricket is like food. The fast versions are the most popular but the long versions are for the finer palate.

Prediction
With the right strategy, cricket can overtake baseball in the USA in 25 years
I never understood cricket having been born in the 🇺🇸 and having parents who could give zero ishts about sports of any kind
But started watching a couple of years ago
Here's the facts:
The 20-20 or ODI format is 10,038% more exciting than baseball
A USA pro league with deep pockets should:
1. Support the creation of cricket teams at select 'prestige' high schools in certain regions/states and create a baller high school cricket championship and a farm system of American cricket players
2. Start plucking off top minor league baseball prospects and perhaps a few late career baseball stars and retrain them on cricket and get them to go pro in cricket. This will make the sport less "foreign" and add familiarity to the sport by virtue of names/faces people recognize.
Done right, cricket in the USA could be a🚀
Note: the test format (5 day) is horrible and would never work in the USA.
Thank you for attending my Ted Talk
