India's AI Filmmakin... • 1m

India just became the No.1 user base for ChatGPT. It sounds like a milestone — and in some ways, it is. We’re hungry for innovation, fast to adopt, and unafraid to explore. But here’s the uncomfortable truth: We’re consuming — not creating. Fueling their AI — not building our own. Training their models — not owning the IP. Cheering from the sidelines — not defining the game. Yes, Indians are CEOs of global tech giants. Yes, our engineers power Silicon Valley. But the core technology? Still foreign. Still proprietary. Still not ours. Despite having: One of the largest pools of tech talent, Millions of young innovators, And an exploding creator economy... We still don’t have our own GPT. Our own Gemini. Our own DeepSeek. Why? Because our system plays it safe. Because investors shy away from deep tech risk. Because policy still lags behind ambition. Because building takes time — and we want returns tomorrow. So yes, we can celebrate our usage stats. But let’s not confuse participation with leadership. India doesn’t need to be the biggest user. It needs to be the boldest builder.

this isn't a milestone it's a warning that we are getting dependent over next gen of foreign tech instead of relying on our own only reason we never built google , amazon from India is exact same reason that we were late and till we could catch up they became so huge and powerful it was impossible to compete , same thing now happening with ai companies sooner or later all the ai companies from India will mostly shutdown or sell itself to other entities

ChatGPT still wins not because it’s the smartest, but because it’s the clearest

They can replicate the product not the person building it. Here’s how I think about Founder Moats: 1) Speed Moat - We move faster than anyone else. Execution is our unfair advantage. 2) Distribution Moat - We have direct access to the audience oth

We’ve decided to pause revealing more about the full Friday AI Suite for now. Why? Because what we’re building is bigger than a product update — it’s a shift in how AI can think, feel, speak, and understand. From Voricon to HelloFriday, Friday -Ca

Yes, we do have food delivery, fantasy sports, influencers, and instant grocery apps. But is that all India is building? Definitely not. Where is the mention of Skyroot Aerospace —India’s private rocket launch startup that's breaking space barriers?

Everyone’s leaving 😬 At every graduation ceremony, the announcements sound like this: – “She’s going to London.” – “He got into New York.” – “Stanford, Harvard, Yale…” No one says: – “I’m staying in India.” – “I’m building something for my own peo

This Reddit post hits different. 42-year-old who's adapted to every tech wave feels lost with ChatGPT. Not because it's hard to use, but because it feels "soulless" - like a talking encyclopedia instead of the AI companion we were promised. The pro
