When everyone else is going well over the speed limit, they chose to slow down on the AI superhighway. And they may well be right.

MarketWatch reports that investors are rewarding Apple for their discipline in AI investments over their "Magnificent Seven" peers. These companies including Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft have committed over $ 700 billion for data centers, increasing their debt and creating much lower free cash flow. This has led to a rout in their market values - dropping over $ 2.3 trillion across the group.

On the other hand, Apple has just had its best June quarter ever, with revenue of $109.4 billion and has seen its valuation grow over 20% to $ 5 trillion. Rather than setup their own AI infrastructure, Apple has chosen to partner with Google Gemini for the back end of its Siri platform. As a result, they remain focused on what they do best - simplifying & beautifying life!

Just goes to show that Think Different is not a slogan for them, they still believe it, long after their founder gave it to the world.

Sending work by email, and then following up with a WhatsApp message? And then checking both for a status update?

WhatsApp has become our workplace and yet our work tools don't seem to have noticed. We need to login into the tool, take some action and then it will send an email alert (that nobody will see). Then we have to again send a WhatsApp to get confirmation.

What we really need is something that will work inside WhatsApp, letting us do our work in 1 click. No Login, No Navigation, No Fuss. And what's more, if you can ask the AI bot, directly in WhatsApp, instead of downloading and formatting information from reports.

That's how we end up Accelerating Performance - One message at a time!

Number of AI Agents > People? Meta's vision is that each person will have agents that "understand your goals and that are just working on your behalf 24/7"

Almost half a century ago, Bill Gates had set out a similar mission for Microsoft - "A computer on every desk and in every home". Mark Zuckerberg seems to have taken this to the next level - An Agent in every Pocket and in every Purse.

And his weapon of choice is WhatsApp. Its business focused agents have been already adopted by 1 million businesses in the last quarter. And going by the investment Meta is making on AI datacenters (billions of dollars every quarter) they will be rooting for the vision to come true sooner than later.

This also makes it clear why they recruited Kunal Shah to head WhatsApp. India is by far the biggest market for WhatsApp, we are leading in AI usage and generally much more optimistic about the use of AI than the West. So they need a person who has built large scale businesses in India from scratch to make the leap to "agents for billions of people to help them with their finances, health, interpersonal relationships, and household management."

So what do you think? Is this achievable in the next few years?

Can the Pharma industry be a role model for Indian IT giants? Generic drugs aren't glamourous but they make India the "Pharmacy of the world".

According to TechCrunch, Chinese open weight AI models are gaining rapidly on OpenAI and Anthropic. They are being used for much of the volume-heavy infrastructure of AI apps, while closed models operate as the higher-cost, premium layer.

At the same time, the AI giants are also creating separate businesses dedicated to deploying AI engineers to their customers’ offices to assist businesses in figuring out how to use their AI models. In other words, they see a trillion dollar "Services" opportunity.

In the pharma world, USA creates blockbuster premium patented drugs, China manufactures the bulk chemicals (or APIs) for most drugs, while India straddles the middle ground of making generic drugs.

Can AI also move in this direction - high end AI models created in the USA, open weight models in China, with Indian IT companies providing services to implement models for customers as per their needs.

We already have the customer base and the domain knowledge, now all that remains is to rapidly scale our AI capabilities to grab these emerging opportunities.

Nuclear power is an often underrated clean energy technology. And now India's scientists are proving that it can be used for clean hydrogen too.

Have you wondered why we see plumes coming out of the cooling tower? It's actually steam. The heat from the nuclear splitting of radioactive material is used to generate steam at very high temperature and pressure, which is used in turbines to create electricity. But once it is used, it is released into the air, wasting both water and heat.

Scientists at BARC decided to do something about this. Using the Copper-Chlorine (Cu–Cl) thermochemical cycle, they created a way to generate Hydrogen from Copper & Chlorine compounds. The steam is split into Hydrogen and Oxygen while the compounds get recycled back into the system (without any emissions).

We are seeing a boom in Green Hydrogen - hydrogen made by environment friendly methods - which till now is made by using solar energy. It is not only important in industries but also as a potential fuel. Indian Railways has built a prototype train while Tata Motors has built buses that run on hydrogen fuel cells.

If we can safely scale up both the production of green hydrogen and its use in transportation, we will be well on our way to energy independence.

Let's celebrate this achievement by our scientists towards Atmanirbharta.

It looks like the time has come to sell ice to Eskimos. Europe is now burning hot and the "Neighbor's Envy is now India's Pride" (h/t: Onida).

Global warming is making us nostalgic for the days when SRK would roll in the snow in Switzerland. Now we only hear of the heatwave causing death and destruction in Europe.

Economic Times reports that the government is encouraging AC manufacturers to expand in Europe, and while we may be a little more expensive than Chinese brands, our products have been market tested and comply to their strict compliance norms. And with free trade agreements on the horizon, Indian ACs are looking at a great future ahead.

Let's hope we become "The Coolest One" (h/t: Kelvinator)

S. Korea has recently given us the most trending popstars, the best ramen, and now it may even add an AI Payment (lets call it K-Pay, maybe) to this list.

The Korean presidential policy chief Mr. Kim Yong-beom floated the idea that the nation should pay citizens a “dividend” using taxes on AI profits.

Companies like Samsung Electronics Co. and SK Hynix Inc. are reaping the windfall benefits of the AI boom. And while these companies are negotiating with their workers for pay increases on the back of this growth, there is also increased pressure to redistribute the benefits to the rest of the people.

As Mr. Kim mentioned, in a classic understatement, “Excess profits in the AI era are, by nature, concentrated, while much of the middle class may experience only indirect effects".

So, should the taxes from AI, be given to the people most affected by AI? And how do we balance the benefits of AI against the job losses that are happening?
