Everyone dreams of building a profitable business. But, in Japan-- small profitable businesses are shutting down.
And, not for the reason you think: No! their business is not shrinking & they are not having operational issues.
Their reason for shutting down is strange: it is honor.
Meaning: many business owners do not trust that their business would be run well by their successors.
They don't trust their son/daughters/other successors to run their business well.
Many think that it would ruin their family name.
So they choose honor over profits.
There is a beautiful quote: if being honorable was profitable. The world would be honorable.

Now that OpenAI Chat GPT proved that 80% of questions do not require a live internet connection to get an answer. This has been my thesis for decades.
We have been working on a single chip to hold a quantized trained model of a Chat GPT 3.5-like platforms on a local chip.
By having AI not miles away or feet away but nanometers away from the CPU/GPU the universe changes.
Complete AI on a chip will start a revolution just like the microprocessor did.
We will find this AI ultimately in everything needed or not, just like the microprocessor.
However the ability to act in a closed local environment with the knowledge of most of the digital world, will completely remake society.
We have a choice to guide this to greatness or relinquish it to “those who know better”.
One thing you can’t say is: ”I didn’t know this was coming”.
Now—you know.
With funding beyond my piggy bank VC in my garage lab. I will make the first #KnowledgeOnAChip system. This will include the entire text library of Wikipedia plus 3200 directories including first person knowledge of @Quora.
No internet is needed.
This will change everything.
The 5G revolution and its successors will change the telecom business in India in multiple ways – some of which cannot even be contemplated currently. @reliancejio @airtelindia @Vi @AdaniOnline Investment of 10 lacs split across these companies.. Target: 5yrs

When I asked my first boss, how come there is always this unequal distribution of work even within the same team, he replied,
"Good people pay a far higher price for being good than bad people pay for being bad"
He wasn't talking about work.
He was talking about life.
#SPACEX Falcon 9 with Dragon carrying Bob and Doug to #ISS is a childhood dream come true for me!! Too excited to watch today's launch. We will be re-writing space travel history for the generations to come. We are getting one step closer to #MARS. #LaunchAmerica
