Three days covering everything from #AI to dark matter to UN reform, my first Raisina Dialogue from the “other side” has made me appreciate just how singular, ambitious (+a little crazy) this forum is.

Big thanks to Team ORF, and congratulations on a successful #Raisina2024 🥳

Kicking off the Monday before I fly off to Delhi for Raisina Dialogue by going through the freshly-dropped #Raisina2024 agenda 📱

Fantastic (if sinister) one-liner: “If the Global South is not at the #AI high table, it will be on the menu.”

“Air Canada must honor refund policy invented by airline’s chatbot”. Fascinated by the Air Canada legal team’s argument that the AI chatbot is a “separate legal entity”.
