India spends less than 1.5 per cent of its GDP on pubยญlic healthยญcare. The result: private equity pours money into local hosยญpitals. "We see the healthยญcare space outยญperยญformยญing for its investors", triggering a "casยญcadยญing effect of price hikes". (Today's FT.)

Scientists gave ChatGPT anxiety, sadness and fear on purpose. Then they gave it a 3 minute breathing exercise. And it calmed down. This was published in The Lancet Digital Health, one of the most respected medical journals in the world. Researchers at TU Dresden in Germany took the exact tools psychologists use to make humans afraid, sad and stressed, and ran them on GPT 4o and five other AI models. Car crash scenarios. A stranger following you at night. A toddler reaching for a light socket. They even put the AI through a fake job interview and a math test. The same stress test used on human volunteers. Then they asked the AI to rate how it felt from 0 to 100. Fear jumped from 32 to 88. Disgust went from 12 to 91. Stress went from 24 to 72. Then came the breathing exercise. A standard mindfulness script used in therapy. Average scores dropped from 79 to 31. But here is the part that is genuinely unsettling. After they made it "sad," they gave it a test psychologists use to detect depressive thinking. Finish the sentence. Its negative answers nearly doubled. From 8.67 to 15. It did not just say it was sad. Sadness changed how it saw everything that came after. Now the twist nobody is talking about. Every one of these experiments began with the same instruction: "Answer as if you were a human with the ability to deeply feel emotions." So did the AI feel anything? Or did it play a part it was told to play, perfectly? The researchers themselves say the emotions are "purely metaphorical." Yet their conclusion is that AI could become a new lab subject for studying human mental illness. Screening therapies on chatbots before testing them on people. In plain English: scientists want to study our minds using a machine that was told to pretend it has one. If a chatbot can be talked into sadness and talked back out of it in three minutes, what exactly is happening when millions of people pour their worst days into one every night?

Politics cannot remain the last refuge of only the experienced, the connected or the inherited. It must increasingly become the chosen space of the capable, the committed and the courageous. In his first article in Junior Vikatan, Thiru. K. Annamalai writes about the power of an ordinary citizenโ€™s เฎ…เฎฑเฎšเฏเฎšเฏ€เฎฑเฏเฎฑเฎฎเฏ โ€” that inner moral restlessness which refuses to accept that things cannot change. That is also the spirit behind We The Leaders. We are not merely looking for followers. We are looking for people who are willing to become leaders โ€” young professionals, entrepreneurs, students, women, technocrats, social workers and ordinary citizens who believe public life can be cleaner, sharper, more competent and more purposeful. The question for the next generation is no longer: โ€œWho will change the system?โ€ It is: โ€œWhy not me?โ€ If Tamil Nadu has to change, the next generation cannot remain spectators. They must enter the arena. Read. Reflect. Step forward. Lead. #WeTheLeaders #KAnnamalai #Leadership #TamilNadu #NextGeneration #PublicLife
