India Data Center Capacity: Current Base, Pipeline, and What It Means

Mon, 15 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

India’s data-center market is already at gigawatt scale, and the next wave is large enough to change the structure of the market.

The research problem is that public numbers mix definitions. Some sources measure IT load. Some measure total power capacity. Some include only colocation. Others include broader campus announcements. If you force those into one clean number, you get false precision.

The more useful planning view is a range.

The Future of AI: A Map of Disagreement

Mon, 15 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

The smartest people in AI agree on one thing: this matters enormously. After that, the map breaks apart.

Some expect a fast intelligence explosion. Some expect a sharp but continuous acceleration. Some think the current path is overhyped, bottlenecked by the physical world, or missing the architecture required for real general intelligence. The honest landscape is not a single forecast. It is a map of disagreements between people who have thought about the problem seriously.

DIY Smart Robot With a Local Gemma Brain

Tue, 09 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

The best way to build a small AI robot is to keep the architecture boring.

Use the local model for high-level reasoning, explanations, and plans. Use deterministic firmware for timing, motor control, watchdogs, limits, and emergency stop. The model should never drive motors directly.

That separation is the whole project.

Goal

Build a small rover that can:

Local Inference on WebGPU: Where Small Models Actually Win

Sun, 07 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

The exciting version of browser AI is not “run a giant chatbot in a tab.” The useful version is narrower and more practical:

Train or fine-tune a small model in Python, export it to ONNX or a browser-friendly runtime, and run the loop locally through WebGPU.

As of this research snapshot, that loop is real enough to build with. The advantage is not universal, but in a few cases it is decisive: private data stays on device, latency drops below the threshold where interaction feels live, server cost goes to zero, and offline use becomes possible.

How I Went from a Small Town Kid to Working on Cutting-Edge AI

Mon, 24 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0000

So here’s my story - I grew up in a small town in Rajasthan, raised by my kickass single mom and elder sister. School was my thing, and when I hit 11th grade, I fell hard for C++ programming. Like every other Indian kid with decent grades, I ended up at Allen Institute Kota for IIT-JEE prep. Spoiler alert: The pressure cooker environment there? Yeah, not my scene.

Landed at BIT Bangalore for telecommunications engineering instead. Failed a year - but honestly? That turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Instead of moping around, I hit the gym and dove deep into programming classes. Best decision ever.

About

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Hey there fellow startup builder! I have been an early stage engineer with some product chops for around 8 years now having worked with a half dozen startups from bootstrapped/pre-seed funded to unicorns.

My base is in my hometown Udaipur, India and I have been exploring digital nomad lifestyle traveling around south east Asia from last couple of years.

I’m at a stage in my life / career where I want to double down on working towards things that I’m really passionate about and gives me a sense of purpose.
