Meta CTO has stated that increased productivity due to AI should result in more work, not more time-off Up until recently, the introduction of artificial intelligence at the workplace meant one of two things: employee layoffs or less work for the humans. But as far as Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth is concerned, there is a third possibility… increase in work. Speaking at a Q&A event recently, Bosworth said: “I hope that what we do with our extra time is do even more and cooler stuff for the users who use our products every day. We got billions of people using…

After establishing itself as a major smartphone manufacturing hub, India has now turned its focus on building hardware that powers artificial intelligence… In the last decade, India has gone from one of the major importers of smartphone devices to one of the biggest exporters. Powered by government incentives, supply-chain diversification and Apple’s expanding production, India has become one of the leading exporters of mobile phones. In fact, according to a recent report in The Times of India, India’s smartphone exports have surged 165-fold over the last decade, reaching ₹2.59 lakh crore in FY26. That puts India in among the top…

The race for AI isn’t just about powerful software; India is focussing on building solid infrastructure to back the software… For the last two decades, digital growth in India has always hovered around software development and internet services. But with the advancement in AI, that has been changing over the last couple of years. Every AI model – chatbot or cloud application – requires huge computing power and this is housed inside a data centre. As companies across the world race to deploy AI powered systems, the need for AI-supportive facilities has also increased. Image Source India’s AI Infrastructure Revolution…

While others race to build faster GPTs and AI powered systems, India is focusing on underwater cables that move data faster… When it comes to the AI race, everyone talks about GPUs, massive data centres and cutting-edge models. But there is an invisible layer of infrastructure that powers chatbot responses, cloud workloads and enterprise applications: the high-capacity fibre-optic networks and undersea cables. But of late, this is gaining a lot of attention, especially in India. Technology companies, telecom operators and cloud providers are all expanding their connectivity as we move towards an AI-first future. Moving data faster has become as…

India’s homegrown payment system is spreading across the world as more and more countries are beginning to adopt UPI… For all its flaws, India seems to be doing something right! Our very own Unified Payments Interface (UPI) has gone from being a local success story to being adopted and accepted by countries around the world. Singapore, France, UAE, Nepal, Qatar and several other countries had already accepted UPI as a form of payment in recent months. And now Greece have become the 10th country to accept UPI payments. They will allow India tourists to make payments with QR codes instead…

Artificial Intelligence picked the winners of the 2026 World Cup winners before a ball was even kicked but how reliable are these predictions? Thanks to Artificial Intelligence, Paul can rest in peace. Remember the octopus who used to pick up World Cup match winners back in 2010? Well, we’ve gone from marine invertebrates to artificial intelligence now with all the LLMs picking various winners of the world’s most watched sporting spectacle. From OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini to Anthropic’s Claude and Opta’s supercomputer, all of them have predicted the winners of the 2026 event being held in USA, Mexico and…

A closer look at the technological marvel that is the official match ball of the ongoing FIFA World Cup… Every four years, at the FIFA World Cup, Adidas unveils a new football and in 2026, the latest edition is called the Trionda. But unlike the previous ones, this year’s version is a connected sports device with sensors, advanced materials, aerodynamic engineering and real-time data capabilities. Called Trionda, to mark the first time three countries are hosting the sporting spectacle, this ball represents one of the biggest technological upgrades ever seen in football. It actively communicates with the referees, providing live…

With the arrival of AI coding agents like GitHub Copilot and Claude Code, software engineers are seeing drastic changes to their everyday roles… Software engineers have always followed a predictable path. Graduate, find a junior level job where you write code, gain experience and eventually move to senior roles that involve code architecture or leadership positions. But with the arrival of AI coding tools, that path is changing drastically. From GitHub Copilot to Cursor to Claude Code, there are plenty of coding tools that are doubling up as AI assistants and not just at an experimental level. They have become…

Instead of building smarter AI models, Indian startups are focusing on smarter ways to use AI for businesses… The last few years have seen a global AI race where a handful of tech giants are trying to outdo each other by building the best AI foundational model. ChatGPT, Claude and a host of other LLMs are the result of this race. But instead of getting caught up in this race and spending millions to outdo these Silicon Valley giants, Indian tech startups are focusing on a completely different problem statement: using AI to solve real-world problems. From software development and…

Instead of trying to build the next ChatGPT, Indian tech startups are using AI to solve and automate industry-specific problems… For the last two years, all the tech giants have been locked in a race to build the next big foundational AI model like ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini. But not Indian startups… They’ve been in a different race altogether. Instead of focussing on a general-purpose AI model, Indian tech startups are set on vertical AI – these are specialised AI systems that are designed for specific industries and business workflows. According to a 2025 report by startup accelerator Upekkha, this…
