#WATCH | Bengaluru: Showcasing the silicon wafer, Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw says, "This is the wafer in which each die has about 20 to 30 billion transistors... One die is one of those squares you see... This transistor density is used to design the silicon. This is essentially a single chip with a GPU and a CPU. The end product that comes out of this is this kind of module, which becomes an AI computer on the desktop of any person, on the edge, meaning within a camera, within a Wi-Fi router, or within a device on any machine, or any moving car, automobile, train, or aeroplane... That kind of development is underway and reinforced by the talent pipeline we are creating as part of Semicon mission 1.0... We set a target of 85,000 semiconductor-trained people over a period of 10 years. I'm happy to share that, over 4 years, we have trained 67,000 semiconductor engineers. This is now available at 315 universities and colleges, where all semiconductor design-related EDA tools are available. The students are designing chips... The final product is being validated, and it's a strong capability because few universities and countries worldwide have this kind of model." He adds, "Recently, at Davos, when I shared this model with semiconductor industry leaders, they were very happy about it and believe that the 1 million talent gap in the semiconductor industry will largely be filled by talent from India... In the recent budget, the entire IT services industry has undergone various simplifications. Whether it is getting the APS done or getting the safe harbour clause properly defined, all those things are in place. Today, the industry aims to enter India in a big way. Whatever progress we have seen in the last few years will accelerate with the announced reforms..."

#WATCH | Semicon India 2025 | Sandeep Kumar, CEO, L&T Semiconductor Technologies, says, "We are building a new security protocol chip. All the chips currently in use in passports, Aadhaar cards, and payment cards are imported. There are high chances of security and data breaches. At L&T, we will develop those chips for the security protocol. These chips will be released within 1.5 years. These chips will be used in passports, credit cards, and Aadhar cards, which will become electronic, and all payment gateways... The government already has plans to make new passports with electronic chips, so as soon as the chips are ready, passports will be made using these chips..."

Listen to this student and you will have no doubt that #NaanMudhalvan is among the best skilling programs in the WORLD today !! This is the #DravidianModel – it is our passion and vision which is enabling the youth of #TamilNadu to get the best education available, AND get placed in #jobs they deserve ! Immense respect for our honourable CMOTamilNadu Thiru. M.K.Stalin avargal for launching such a landmark scheme, and for our honourable Sports and Youth Affairs Minister Thiru. Udhay for executing it beautifully and ensuring that the program continuously evolves and improves ! #NaanMudhalvan does not just equip our students with technical knowledge, but also the confidence and communication skills they need to excel in a global market. When we promote our state for investments, we always mention our talent pool – the hardworking and educated people of Tamil Nadu – as our biggest strength, and under the leadership of our honourable Chief Minister we will continue enabling them with knowledge and skills. The Tamil Nadu Global Investors Meet 2024 will be a tribute to the remarkable spirit of our people ! #InvestInTN #TNGIM2024

China finished Gaokao yesterday. It is the exam 13 million students take for admission in Universities. Here they are touching the number 985 & 211 for good luck. Policemen with badges & cars of those numbers & especially standing to rub the luck on students. 985- number of elite universities 211- China’s top universities How happy kids and policemen are. No checking, no paper leaks, no unnecessary extra stress on students before exam. And btw, Indian paper leaks made global news & China too knows about it. In some posts they have started to mention how they conduct such large examinations.

#WATCH | India AI Impact Summit 2026 | Delhi: Founder Chairman and CEO of Sampark Foundation & former CEO of HCL Technologies, Vineet Nayar says, "...From an employment point of view I think it is very important for us to understand that Indian companies, including Indian IT companies, are going to be profit-driven and therefore if you believe that they are going to create employment you must be dreaming. Therefore, the question is how do we create employment in this environment, and that employment comes from mass scale startups, which is what this government has already doing. So, how do we create new sets of people who are trying to solve new sets of problems not new sets of technology and if we do that we will get it right. I think we as Indians have to be very careful on who does data belong to and that is the debate we have a problem with. The LLM models which exist worldwide are far superior than the Indian models. Unfortunately, in India, we never develop products, so therefore we do not have SLMs and LLMs which are world-class. On one side, we have global LLM products which are coming to India and trading on our Indian data. Should we allowed that or should we not allowed that? But on the other side if we don't allow that then we have the data but we don't have the LLM models. So, how do we encourage technology completely to develop the LLM models. This needs radicals strategic thinking and a very important aspect otherwise we will either give up a data. So, I think it's a very critical aspect for us to think about - who does this data belong, what is the kind of incentives we are going to give to develop LLM technologies or SLM technologies fast so that we train on our data otherwise an LLM will come in with our data and we'll immediately see return and we'll celebrate and we will do all these kind of press releases but the India will lose a competitive advantage on something which is very critical for the next decade."

$🪐 WORLD CREATORS Generative AI opened the door for everyone to tell their stories without the need for a crew or a big budget. We started slowly with images and saw an enormous interest in tools like Midjourney, DALL-E, or Leonardo. Now, a bit more than a year later, we find ourselves in front of new technologies that are transforming our way of life, how we create, and how we consume content. ChatGPT is rapidly replacing Googling, and all the generative AI tools are replacing all the stock photos and videos, with tools like Runway enabling storytelling for everyone. And we won't take over Hollywood. We will surpass it in ways we can't even imagine right now. We'll be able to create worlds and stories beyond our wildest imagination. Generative AI is enabling creative people to go 1000x on what was possible before. At the core of everything we'll still need human creativity, and we have to understand that AI tools without it will be nothing. Until then, enjoy a short video I've put together to illustrate a small fraction of the worlds we will create soon. What worlds and stories are you excited to create?$

As our systems get closer to AGI, humanity is not yet prepared. And we are not prepared in part because it's not clear what it would mean to prepare. The path ahead remains unclear. How will societies adapt? Which economies will transform first? How will global power dynamics shift? What does this mean for conflict and cooperation between nations? These are the conversations we must have now. Register today to join us at the BGI Summit from October 21-23, 2025, in Istanbul, Türkiye, to explore and discuss how we can prepare for human-level AGI:

China may have delayed their latest lunar mission, but at NASA, we are not slowing down. America has the mandate, the talent, the resources, the most advanced capabilities from industry and our partners, and the playbook for success. We have done it before. We will do it again. And this time, we are going to the Moon to stay.
