We just launched v0.1 of Use Case Garden - a community-driven space to bridge the gap between what AI can do and what needs to be done. Today's AI is incredibly capable. Large Language Models (LLMs) can understand text, images, voice – pretty much anything we throw at them. But there's a massive gap between these capabilities and real-...

Or Questions I wish I'd asked myself earlier on. ---- It's been about a year since a few old friends and I started working together, trying to build something of our own. Six months of informal collaboration followed by another six months of getting serious about company formation. One thing's been abundantly clear - I would not have b...

Some guy from Jharkhand stabbed a Kannadiga bus conductor in a BMTC bus in Bengaluru. The identities involved: "from Jharkhand" and "Kannadiga". Sure, they had names, they had individuality, but none of that mattered. It didn’t further the narrative. So, their associated labels were used instead. One was the victim. But even that label...

So here goes the full collection so far with smaller 1-line context for each, mostly for my own reference. If you find it helpful / interesting as well,...

I read something recently that stuck with me: a company is just a group of people making decisions. It's the decisions part that resonated. I'm a slow decision-maker, but not indecisive. I'm clear on some things, but most of the time, I overthink. My structured approach to decision-making serves me well in certain situations, but most ...

We're sitting on a demographic time bomb. Our huge youth population is rapidly becoming a burden, not a boon. Why? Because they're not employed, at least not meaningfully. This leads to a cascade of other negative effects. Two major reasons for this unemployment are the lack of skills and lack of opportunities. But without the opportun...

I miss the old days of messy conversations. You know, the kind where you'd walk away thinking "huh, I never thought of it that way." The kind that made you feel like you'd actually learned something. Those conversations were spirited, but not argumentative. They were the kind that changed your viewpoint, even if only slightly. They wer...
