It’s a shame what’s happening in Bangalore. I started my AI Consulting company in Pune but soon left Pune for Bangalore due to this exact regional chauvinism. We’re a team of 70 people now and as a company pay our fair share of taxes to the Karnataka government. Our team

OpenAI founder Sam Altman said it’s pretty hopeless for Indian companies to try and compete with them. Dear @sama, From one CEO to another.. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.

Man, @vkhosla is brutal. I've never raised VC. Curious to know what founders who have think about this. Do 70% of investors add negative value?

Today it’s about signboards. Tomorrow about name plates in front of houses. Where does it stop? The problem is that a language is being given more importance over people’s safety and well being.

Entire categories of startups got killed today by OpenAI at DevDay. It was total carnage for AI startup founders as @sama threw one new feature after the other at them. Here are some startup categories that won’t exist starting tomorrow: 1. Closed Source LLMs: OpenAI launched

I was a lost 22 year old - an IIT graduate making 5 LPA and toiling 14 hrs/day for an MNC. Fast forward 5 years, I now employ 50 people at Aidetic, the AI Consulting firm I founded. Here's the story of how we bootstrapped to $1M in revenue, warts and all.

Witnessed a strange incident today in HSR. I was walking by I found an auto driver weeping unbearably. When I was near him, in between sobs, he requested me to help with putting Bowring Hospital’s location in Google Maps. He said he was trying voice search but it wasn’t working

Think about what’ll happen to your “IT Professional” job once businesses relocate from here.

I ingested all @ycombinator videos I could find on YouTube into @fabrichq_ai and came up with an AI expert on startups! It's concise, to the point, and doesn't hallucinate. If this gets 100 likes, I'll open it up for everyone. Happy to improve the bot by adding more valuable

I see a lot of VCs virtue signalling on Twitter about how India needs to up its tech innovation game. And yet they are the first ones to back out of risky bets. The simple reason why the Indian startup ecosystem lacks innovation is because no VC is ready to take a bet on

Okay, this blew up! See, I’m not dissing Indian orgs but our ecosystem is not conducive to innovation. I’ve been building AI products since 2018 for both Indian and US clients. So I have first hand experience of how difficult it is to build smth as substantial as GPT in India.
