AI is changing everything, and it's not just ChatGPT or self-driving cars.

You'd be surprised at just how broadly AI is being applied across tons of industries.

I’ve now invested in 50 AI startups, and here are some recent investments using AI in fascinating applications 👇

 ☄️ @ForgeAstro is building robots to autonomously mine asteroids, returning precious materials to Earth.

Why? One asteroid can contain up to $10,000 quadrillion(!) of rare material.

This is enabled by computer vision, affordable rocket rides, and small sat maturation.
🎭 @WOMBO makes creating images with AI easy, fun, and useful.

With 130+ million downloads on iOS and Android and 2 billion images created, they are likely the largest consumer AI startup around.

My 8-year-old uses @WOMBO like I did Photoshop way back when. So fun.
⛑ @BiofireUSA protects kids from guns using AI.

@BiofireUSA is building a handgun that only fires for the authenticated owner, ensuring that kids don’t stumble upon a gun and tragically lose their life.

Imagine incredibly low-latency and accurate FaceID-like auth for guns.
🎨 What if video editing was reinvented with AI? Enter @runwayml, which enables complex videos to be created with AI in minutes vs. days.

Not only does @runwayml speed up creation, they also enable wild ideas that exist only in your mind to come to life.

🔋 https://t.co/50DyEIObrZ automates the disassembly of EV batteries with AI.

We cannot rely on mining lithium to fuel EV expansion, and human disassembly of EV batteries is dangerous and slow.

The solution: autonomous robots disassembling batteries, powered by machine vision!
🧠 To efficiently scale AI, Geoffrey Hinton believes we need an entirely new computer—likely neuromorphic.

@Rain__AI is working on precisely that, pioneering a neuromorphic processing unit (NPU) that's 10,000x more efficient, delivering what comes after the GPU & deep learning.
⛏️ https://t.co/CJmiEnOqiV transforms existing earth-moving machines into fully autonomous machines with AI.

How much more could we build on our planet if we had a low-cost, around-the-clock workforce of robot earth-moving machines? A lot!
☁️ @StrongCompute is speeding up training ML models by 10x-1,000x.

The amount of unproductive time in ML today is staggering, which is why @StrongCompute is growing so fast.

One customer: “Strong Compute took our core algorithm training from 30 hours to 5 minutes.”
🩻 We know AI can dramatically improve detecting health issues in medical imaging, and @md_ai_ is where that AI is being built.

With @md_ai_, you can create or browse the best medical datasets in the world, and then train and deploy state-of-the-art medical ML models.
🚜 @PolymathRobots has built true plug-and-play AI for industrial vehicles.

Think about enabling thousands of vehicles in rail yards, mines, airports, and fields to drive by themselves.

@PolymathRobots's key insight is reducing integration time with sim, and it’s working.
📸 @opalcamera has built a beautiful webcam augmented with AI, producing DSLR-like image quality for only $300.

They tightly integrated a 4K mirrorless lens, beamforming mics, and computer vision to deliver the best webcam out there.

🎥 @twelve_labs has developed the world’s best video search, powered by state-of-the-art AI.

Imagine being able to search millions of videos with complex questions, with AI pin-pointing non-obvious but relevant scenes.

Basically, useful video search is finally here.
Thanks to these startups and others, the future will be awesome. If you're building something similarly great, please DM me.

Here are a bunch more super cool AI startups to check out.

SRI MOOKAMBIKA DEVI, KOLLUR (KAR)

There was an Asura, Kaumasura, who was doing penance to please Shiva and get a boon. To prevent him from asking for a boon, Devi Saraswati made him dumb (hence called Mookasur)
Later, Adi Parashakti slayed him and came to be called Mookambika.


It is said that Adi Shankaracharya had a vision in which Devi agreed to follow him provided he did not look back. He kept walking and was assured of her presence due to the sound of anklets. When he reached here in Kollur, he turned back as the sound of anklets had stopped.


So Devi stayed here and merged with the lingam. The place came to be called Mookambika Kshetram.
The linga has integrated on it’s left side MahaKali, Maha Lakshmi and Maha Saraswathi and on the right side- Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva.


A swarna rekha (gold line) divides this linga into left and right portion. Adi Shakthi in this Udhbhavlinga form appears only here.
Devi sits in padmasana and has 4 hands.
Adi Shankaracharya installed the Sri Chakra in front of Devi and also composed the Soundarya Lahiri here.

Thrikkangode Sree Randu Moorthy Temple
Ottappalam, Kerala. 🚩
#keralatemples

This is very unique temple as Shiva and Vishnu both are in the “linga” form in the same Garbhagriham. The Srikovil is in a circular pattern. Temple's Prathishta was done by Parasurama.


Mahadeva and Maha Vishnu in the same Srikovil is very rare Prathishta, but poojas are done separately Dhara is done to Maha Vishnu here. People suffering from “KAIVISHAM” and mental illness are fully cured on drinking a medicinal herb supplied by a nearby family here.


The root of the banyan tree around the Ayyappa Sannidhanam is said to have great powers for skin ailments.

Very ancient temple but was covered with forest for many years.
Later two persons Chakki and Chaathan, while cutting trees their axe hit on the nearby
@SriramKannan77


Vigrahams and it suddenly started bleeding. Later Devaprashnam was held and thus found out that these were murthy's of Shiva and Vishnu which was worshipped long back. And thus temple is constructed here.

Mahabharat - the great war - 18 days of heroism, deceit, blood and intrigue - now as a mega Twitter thread.

I'll add the events from a few days of the war each day.

Caveats: lots of editorialization, creative liberties and interpretations.

There will also be a lot of asides - especially around war strategy and tactics, the characters and their motivations and non-canon storylines.

Over the years, I've read multiple versions, phenomenal translations and modern retellings. So be prepared for a potpourri.

There are different ways of looking at this war. Was it a family feud? Sure - but whose family? Shantanu's or Satyavati's? Was Vyas essentially telling us his family history? And then Kunti added a twist to this tale. Here's a helpful chart:


Satyavati's two sons from Shantanu both died without children. Vyas - her first son - fathered Dhritarashtra and Pandu (and Vidur).

Pandu never fathered any children. Kunti and Madari gave birth to six demi-gods (Karna and the five Pandavs).

So Satyavati Vs Kunti and Madari.

Or was this a fight between two massive neighbouring kingdoms - the Kurus and the Panchals? While many smaller kingdoms joined the battle, most of the Pandav army (more than half of their 7 divisions) came from the Panchals. King Drupad and his son Shikhandi led two divisions.

DETAILED VIEW- Running commentary

1. Chhatrapati Shivaji chose Pantaji as a lawyer to communicate with Afzal Khan. Pantaji was very sharp minded, who did his job very nicely.

2. He presented Chhatrapati Shivaji is fearing Afzal Khan and he wanted to invite him in his kingdom near Pratapgad.

WHEN GH0RI TOOK TO HIS HEELS WHILST FIGHTING A HINDU QUEEN

THE BATTLE OF KASAHRADA (Kayadara)
1178 AD

Strategy! Bravado! Glory!

(Thread)


The narrative set by left historians about one of their favorite poster boys "Gh0ri" is that he went unchallenged upon entering the Indian subcontinent with one king falling after another.(1)

They conveniently deleted this event. Why? An agenda aimed at making us feel weak and inferior against the invaders in an attempt to glorify them. Simple strategy: To destroy a civilization tamper their history.(2)

Gh0ri defeated Prithviraj Chauhan at the 2nd Battle of Tarain in 1192 and laid the foundation of Delhi Sultanate. What is not well known is the fact that 14 years before he won this battle, he was defeated by the queen of Gujarat "Naiki Devi"!(3)

In 1173 Md Gh0ri had conquered the Ghaznavids in Afghanistan. A ruthless, persistent and deceptive Gh0ri was successful in conducting massive raids deep inside Indian territory.(4)

A #story from #Thiruvilayadal puranam-one of divine leelas of Bhagwan Shiva

#threadseries #Madurai

Story 16- it is about how Bhagwan Shiva explained the meaning of Vedas to the Rishis.

வேதத்துக்குப் பொருள் அருளிச் செய்த படலம்


Once there was a great deluge,everything in the world was destroyed.All lifeforms that existed got perished.Afterwards ,due to Bhagwan Shiva creation started.Then from Bhagwan Shiv ji's mouth-birth of 🕉 OM- Pranavam happened.From Pranavam,4 vedas appeared. Rishis learned them.

Many Rishis in Naimisharanya learned Vedas&recited them but they didn't understand the meaning&essence of Vedas. They were worried as they couldn't find any guru who can teach them the meaning of Vedas.That time,Rishi Arabhatar visited them.Rishis told him about need their worry.

Rishi Arabhatar told them that Bhagwan Shiva has given Vedas &he would be grateful enough to teach the meaning as well.But for that rishis have to rigorous penance at a sacred place.Also told them to go to Sundareswarar temple in Madurai to do tapas in front of Dakshinamurthy.

Assured them that Dakshinamurthy himself will come & teach them.Rishis proceeded to Madurai & started their tapas in front of Dakshinamurthy sannidhi for almost a year starting from Karthigai month pournami to next year Karthigai month pournami following all rituals..annadan

This is NONSENSE. The people who take photos with their books on instagram are known to be voracious readers who graciously take time to review books and recommend them to their followers. Part of their medium is to take elaborate, beautiful photos of books. Die mad, Guardian.


THEY DO READ THEM, YOU JUDGY, RACOON-PICKED TRASH BIN


If you come for Bookstagram, i will fight you.
