Actually, he said this.....

We can debate on productivity & efficiency of Indians… but this is poor knowledge and inferiority complex saying Indian languages doesn’t have those words. Thousands of years before any other language..we had words like क्षमता, उत्पादकता, निपुणता …

Happens when you think Hindi is the only language. In Tamil it’s seyalthiran for efficiency and urpathithiran for productivity. He is not right here.

दक्षता (Efficiency) और उत्पादकता (Productivity)

Productivity does exist and it’s utpadakta. Yesterday and Tomorrow and not same - aane wala kal and beeta hua kal is what’s stated or else there context in the sentence where verbs end in future and past tense. These are all taught in class 9th in any school.

There are words in multiple Indian languages. In kannada it's ದಕ್ಷತೆ (Dakshate) for efficiency and ಉತ್ಪಾದಕತೆ (Uthpaadakate) for productivity. Nenne is yesterday and Nale is tomorrow. In Sanskrit ​ह्यः (Hyaḥ) is yesterday and श्वः (Śvaḥ) is tomorrow.

This is so peak 😭 Gotta watch more of him now

when you have money, you can vomit shit and 1000 people will believe. Financial success( or in fact any kind of success )shouldn’t mean you have become expert in everything.

Good to know that the CEO of WhatsApp is a graduate of WhatsApp University Productivity/ Efficiency as a concept came after the industrial age so trying to find a word for it in old scriptures is a foolish argument

This is what happens when you are not aware of the other languages and culture. All south indian languages have the words and meaning for whatever bullshit he is speaking.

I don’t know the words it means it does not exist , I now get why We are not founders but CEOs because we have a major inferiority complex that we can’t compete at a global level..

people really out here fighting over definitions while the man is just trying to make a point

Productivity: उत्पादकता Efficiency: क्षमता Not everything he said is worth tweeting..

Utpadakta (उत्पादकता)Urpathithiran (உற்பத்தித்திறன்)Purely volume of output/production. Efficiency - Karyakshamata (कार्यक्षमता)

might not be wrong though

Kitne chutiya hote hai ye log $3k per capita ke market me agar tum $50k per capita wali efficiency bechna chah rahe ho to tum bewakoof ho market nahi, efficiency have exactly zero value outside need.

Still wrong

The guy is going to make some other app replace Whatsapp, isn't he?

@grok do we have a word

Ignorant pal @kunalb11

@buntyverse Lmao

Bitter truth, unfortunately.

Interesting claim. Sanskrit resolved this long before modern management discovered “productivity.” “योगः कर्मसु कौशलम्”—excellence in action—is a far richer idea than efficiency alone. It is one of the most celebrated verses from the Bhagavad Gita. We have दक्षता, कुशलता, कार्यसिद्धि, सामर्थ्य, and उत्पादकता. English often measures output; Sanskrit as well as Hindi among many Indian languages asks about the quality, purpose, and mastery of action. Sometimes the vocabulary isn’t missing—the familiarity with it is.@kunalb11 Please note carefully if you said this in public forum and perhaps need to recap the profoundness of Indian languages where every language has many words to express “efficiency” and “productivity”.

Hey Grok, @grok do Indian languages have a word for efficiency or productivity? if yes tell me .

yeah right, we don't value time. ok and when are we talking about how employers never stop exploiting employees (specifically in India)? Never Blame the working class and our heritage for your profit, but never do anything to make people prioritize their time and fix this.
