The role of AI extends far beyond academia, it reaches into workplaces where proficiency in English plays an equally critical role. https://thewire.in/society/when-ai-acts-as-a-social-equaliser
Now, a student no longer has to depend on someone else to go through their 300-page thesis or research papers. AI does not just fix errors, but also it helps articulate thoughts into well-structured sentences. With the rise of AI-powered writing tools, these students now have access to resources that assist with editing and improving clarity. This not only empowers the students from various backgrounds but also provides them the right to express their ideas without being hindered by language barriers.
With tools like ChatGPT, polished reports can now be produced in a fraction of the time. The ideas are theirs, the work is theirs, the only thing AI does is help carry it across the finish line, in the language the world expects.
AI is not simply a writing assistant; it is increasingly becoming a tool that bridges deep-rooted gaps in language, opportunity, and voice. And it’s not just about finishing reports or writing grant proposals-it’s about what that writing makes possible, and who finally gets to be heard. By empowering individuals to overcome barriers of language and communication, AI is not just a tool for efficiency, it becomes a bridge across social, economic, and educational divides

AI is advancing faster than anyone predicted—and it’s already reshaping industries around the world. But what does that mean for education?
AI might change how we teach and learn, drawing on insights from past tech shifts and core principles of cognitive science. While AI presents exciting opportunities, it also introduces real risks—especially when it comes to how our brains build knowledge and expertise.

The World Needs AI, But There's a Problem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpMIs6AnUW8 Bloomberg Originals Apr 22, 2025
There's no denying data centers play a critical role in society, with every text, web search and medical scan flowing through these giant buildings. Now AI has turbocharged their demand, along with the electricity that powers them. With utilities rushing to keep up and popular opposition to these behemoths growing, the latest tech revolution may be in for a rough ride.

Dan Hendrycks Eric Schmidt Alexandr Wang Destabilizing AI developments could rupture the balance of power and raise the odds of great-power conflict, while widespread proliferation of capable AI hackers and virologists would lower barriers for rogue actors to cause catastrophe.. Mutual Assured AI Malfunction (MAIM): a deterrence regime resembling nuclear mutual assured destruction (MAD) where any state’s aggressive bid for unilateral AI dominance is met with preventive sabotage by rivals. Given the relative ease of sabotaging a destabilizing AI project—through interventions ranging from covert cyberattacks to potential kinetic strikes on datacenters—MAIM already describes the strategic picture AI superpowers find themselves in.

DeepSeek: Is this China’s ChatGPT moment and a wake-up call for the US?https://indianexpress.com/article/technology/artificial-intelligence/deepseek-is-this-chinas-chatgpt-moment-and-a-wake-up-call-for-the-us-9799686/
Chinese AI lab DeepSeek released two new AI models this month. Their limited use of resources to achieve extraordinary results is making the world take notice. ..The Chinese lab has created something monumental—they have introduced a powerful open-source AI model that rivals the best offered by the US companies. Since AI companies require billions of dollars in investments to train AI models, DeepSeek’s innovation is a masterclass in optimal use of limited resources. ..
Even as AI companies in the US were harnessing the power of advanced hardware like NVIDIA H100 GPUs, DeepSeek relied on less powerful H800 GPUs. This could have been only possible by deploying some inventive techniques to maximise the efficiency of these older generation GPUs.

https://techcrunch.com/2025/01/27/deepseek-punctures-tech-spending-plans-and-what-analysts-are-saying/ While brokerage firm Jefferies warns that DeepSeek’s efficient approach “punctures some of the capex euphoria” following recent spending commitments from Meta and Microsoft — each exceeding $60 billion this year — Citi is questioning whether such results were actually achieved without advanced GPUs.
Goldman Sachs sees broader implications, suggesting the development could reshape competition between established tech giants and startups by lowering barriers to entry. especially with recent new models developed at a fraction of the cost of existing ones; 2) from training to more inferencing, with increased emphasis on post-training (including reasoning capabilities and reinforcement capabilities) that requires significantly lower computational resources vs. pre-training; and 3) the potential for further global expansion

"Other areas will open up, and already we are hearing so many new types of designations. There are people who are saying that there will going to be 'AIEthicist', ( See http://www.emeets.lnwr.in/index.php/4320-need-for-ai-ethics ) then there are people who are saying that they will become 'Prompt Engineers', so there are various types of new jobs that will come up," she added. "I remember when I was a junior in my earlier organisation the only way that we could communicate to our people was through the Union leaders and there was no other way that a management person could communicate with the masses. However, by the time I was chairman, I could communicate to each particular individual by name because technology allowed me to do so, and not only that it allowed them to communicate back to me to give me suggestions which was not the case earlier," she stated.
