i don't know why this inspired me to write down all my thoughts about the topic, but here we go: defined by economists, a job is a set of tasks. to complete a task, you need tools and the necessary skills a common mistake is to compare AI to the industrial revolution. back then, advances in technology allowed the creation of tools to complete what were previously manual tasks. with the introduction of new tools, new skills were needed, both to design and operate them. that's why it created more jobs than it destroyed but that’s not what’s going on with AI. researchers are not trying to automate a task; they’re trying to automate the skill behind all of them: intelligence assuming they are able to do it, what’s left then? many people point to taste or judgment, but i’m skeptical. if we define judgment as the ability to make the right decision, i don’t see why that wouldn’t just be a proxy for intelligence another trait that’s impossible to automate is accountability. this is the one i thought would become the main bottleneck. for example, take the job of an accountant. are you paying them because they know the tax code, or because you want someone to blame when something goes wrong? knowing the tax code is essential, but so is their ability to convey trust in other words: the AI can write the code, but is it going to merge the PR? this sounds reasonable until you start thinking about how smart these things could get. probably, at some point on the intelligence curve, we might start trusting AI more than a human (think whether you would trust a mediocre accountant or gpt-10) i wrote all of this in a very assertive voice, but i'm as uncertain about it as anyone. some days it feels real, and others, pure science fiction

When I wasn't a lawyer, I also used to think like him. Just like him, I was also misinformed. But now that I am a part of the Bar I realise how important vacations are. Judges are not enjoying but rather writing judgements while lawyers get time to complete their pending drafting

Starting tomorrow, Supreme court of India is on a six-week summer vacation and will be operating at just 19% of its capacity. There are 53 million cases pending in Indian courts - 93,143 of them are pending in the Supreme Court. A judge can go on a vacation, a judiciary cannot.

Obviously, Vijay Gokhale is ignorant about how Chinese people view Indian democracy and why they would never see it as an ideological threat. Here is the reasoning. Even if democracy can be viewed as India’s foundational pillar, significantly preventing the worst outcomes, it has also brought about suffocating, if not deadly, costs. India adopted universal suffrage democracy while still economically and socially underdeveloped, thereby legitimising many deeply entrenched pre-modern social structures, which have become institutionalised and integrated into India’s governance today. Idealists like the first prime minister of India, Jawaharlal Nehru, and the early Congress party envisioned oppressed social groups utilising their numerical advantage through democratic elections to create pressure groups, driving gradual social reform and overcoming entrenched societal issues, thus paving the way for economic prosperity. Unfortunately, this ideal scenario didn’t materialise. Instead, groups formed around identities such as religion, caste, sub-caste, and ethnic affiliations have engaged in “vertical mobilisation” through electoral mechanisms, reinforcing traditional social structures and preserving vested economic interests. This has resulted in an institutionalised system that further hinders social dynamism and reinforces social rigidity. Consequently, vested interest groups representing antiquated social structures legitimately hijack democratic processes, obstructing reforms beneficial to the entire society, thus significantly hampering social progress and economic development over the long term. Nevertheless, most people have no better alternative than to tolerate this situation. What type of mistakes are the most challenging to correct? Those that everyone perceives as “correct”. This encapsulates the most profound constraint that democracy imposes on India.

Thank you LoP @RahulGandhi as I found out in my investigation, it went from having clauses that Penalized Quality problems to Penalizing Volume. in the earlier RfP, Mismatch or Wrong Scanning were fined at 4k Rs, and Merged Scanning was fined at 50k Rs. Instead, in the new RfP, they levied massive delay fines (₹50k/day), and forcing rushed scanning at the expense of correct evaluation. Volume over Quality.
