Good thing IITs pulled out of global rankings — they had zero chance of cracking the top 50 anyway.

The premier technical institute in India has produced five times more bureaucrats than academicians — a clear reflection of how Indian society perceives education and its own international standing.

History tells us not to bet against @ylecun

Actually, quite the opposite. I know I can do it and I know how to do it. Just not with the techniques everyone is currently betting on. My bet is (famously) on JEPA, world models, and planning. At some point, you'll realize I'm right 😅



Witness the linked-fication of twitter. "Microsoft killed the GPU mafia" Yes, the one bit llm runs on potato

Microsoft killed the GPU mafia 🤯 They finally open-sourced their 1-bit LLM inference framework called bitnet.cpp. It lets you run 100B parameter models on your local CPU without GPUs. - 6.17x faster inference - 82.2% less energy on CPUs 100% Open Source.



Hope this destroys the education mafia. I really hope Sri Chaitanya will lose to gemini

🇮🇳 Good morning India! A lot of you asked for full-length mock JEE Main tests in @GeminiApp at no cost - done! Good luck on your prep! Last week, SAT. This week, JEE. What other global exams would be most helpful?

Just read about the new UGC law. It gave me more motivation to work hard and leave this country.

Reason #3677365 why education is a source of gigantic blackpill about desha. Personally know 3 GC batchmates that were fully qualified, cleared their interviews to become profs in IISER/IIIT, but delayed by upto 2 years cos other quotas weren’t filled.

India is not in this conversation. Three things that has blackpilled me on this 1. Dharmendra Pradhan insistence on IITs IISERs to full quota seats of faculty before approving GC faculty appointments 2. Govt withdrawal of lateral hiring last year. 3. The UGC reframed…

I asked Gemini not to mention federated learning anywhere in my chats. I explicitly added it in the instructions. It still fucks up

We recruit about 20 feshers in Tamilnadu in our startup, from Tier 2 and 3 colleges. We discriminate heavily in favour of quality. After seeing the poor quality, grade inflation and attitude issues of students, I feel @ugc_india and @AICTE_INDIA could be closed.

Imagine if we actually sat together and read papers like this, like, ‘is everyone okay if I scroll to the next section?’ Academia would heal.
