I have spent nearly a decade building in education, and have interacted with 1000s of students. One belief has only grown stronger: this is the generation that will transform India. They are confident, ambitious and not afraid to take the unconventional path. Proud to play our bit in shaping them. And a big update: 98.3% of our first batch of Newton School of Technology Pune students are doing an internship just after their 2nd year, 17 students are building startups of their own. Here’s what some of them are working on 👇 📡 Raman is analysing satellite-signal interference at VyomIC, which is building a private satellite-navigation constellation for India. 🧠 Birajit is building infrastructure for evaluating AI models at AfterQuery, YC’s fastest unicorn. 🕹️ Devendra built a system to control a drone from a web browser in just 20 days at Drona Aviation. 💻 Sanjana gave up a paid internship to become a committer on the open source Apache Grails project. India has seen this before. In 1963, parts of our first sounding rocket were carried to the launch site on a bicycle. Fifty years later, India launched a mission to Mars. Today, private Indian startups are building rockets of their own. It took generations of engineers willing to take on problems bigger than anything they’d attempted before. This generation has its own problems to take on: 🛰️ Can every phone in India navigate on Indian satellites? 🤖 Can India build its own frontier AI model? 🏭 Can we build our own TSMC? India needs to build. India needs tons of builders. What do you want to see young Indians build?

"Software development is dead" they said. Last month a client paid me $20,000 for an app. My cost was $200 for Claude Code. It's a kiosk mode app for android tablets in taxis. Ads for partner companies, tipping the driver, admin, backend, the whole thing. Now live in production. I didn't write a single line of code. Still took 1 month of constant work. The best part? The client came to me with a vibecoded version first. It was horrendous. He paid $20k because he needed someone who has done this before, professional design, real assurance, and 12 months of support. You can't vibe code that. Without AI it would have taken 3 months and cost him 2-3x more. Developers using AI will always win. Stop listening to people who say software is dead for views.

don't start a startup just to look cool on social media. ask your "why" first otherwise you won't be able to do it long term. of course you'll have freedom. but this freedom is for your own decisions, the way you work, and saying no to the kind of work you don't want to do. it's not freedom from deadlines, from being answerable to someone, or from working on weekends. so knowing your "why" is really important if you want to do this for the long term. it's what keeps you going on the hard days.

New video is our most viewed video ever in 24 hours but more importantly, it has 10,000+ comments saying it’s our BEST video ever (literally). Even though I’ve been making content for 17 years now I still think my best days are ahead, appreciate you all ❤️❤️❤️

Introducing Griffin, the first model to pass the video Turing test. 48% of people who talked to it live thought it was a real human. Previous systems have had a pass rate <3%. It is #1 on NVIDIA's benchmark for full-duplex AI video. It’s the first Human Interaction Model (HIM).
