AI doom or boom? Let’s not get over-anxious about the impact of this technology on India’s economy
While India’s IT sector employs young well-paid workers whose spending matters, fewer IT jobs may not be much of a setback for overall consumption. Over time, productivity gains from AI could boost the income of those who are employed, though how this plays out will need to be tracked.

'Passive euthanasia'? This term captures why media coverage of end-of-life care calls for special guidelines
The term ‘passive euthanasia’ was widely used in the Harish Rana case, but it shrinks a complex ethical and legal issue into a misnomer. As words shape perceptions, the media must use language that’s sensitive and doesn’t distort how fundamental rights are understood.

The puzzle of IDBI Bank’s stalled privatization: Just what exactly is holding this sell-off back?
The government’s decision to mark time on IDBI Bank’s privatization is puzzling. Its rationale is clear and the stage for its sell-off was set years ago. Low bids should not get in the way of the process as revenue maximization was never the idea.

Mint Quick Edit | Seat pricing rules: Is this intervention in India’s aviation market justified?
The government has responded to passenger discontent by directing airlines to keep at least 60% of their flight seats free of any extra charge. Regulatory overreach? That depends on the market’s level of competition—and there isn’t enough.

Hiring #MeToo men as ‘distressed assets’ may help Paramount’s finances but it’s a myopic game to play
The Hollywood studio’s rush to sign up ‘distressed assets’ may look financially savvy, but this strategy is likely to serve it poorly. Even as it rides high with its leveraged buyout of Warner Brothers Discovery, its recruitment policy will show up in regressive output.

Eichengreen: Geo-economic warriors should realize the perils of turning every edge into a weapon
Albert Hirschman’s book on geo-economics written in the context of Nazi Germany is proving prescient. Today, national strategies that weaponize trade flows, critical supplies and financial systems are prone to miscalculation—as with nuclear deterrence.

Misguided fury: America’s war on Iran could boomerang in a way it doesn’t seem to realize
The war is spectacular alright. We’ve seen the world’s most powerful nation tear up its own rulebook. Having done so, it risks losing the very resource that its leadership of the world depends on—the trust of others in its will and ability to uphold a rules-based order.

Spare us the theatrics: An oil shock should prompt macro responses, not gimmicks
Energy conservation slogans that echo those of the 1970s oil shock should make us roll our eyes. America had plenty of well-meaning but ineffective campaigns back then. What ultimately matters is the macro policy response of governments and central banks.

GST reform urgency: India must mend the chain of input tax credit that’s holding its economy back

Viksit Bharat and net-zero as goals demand that India sets up a specialized transition finance institution
Such an institution could brighten India’s prospects of pursuing Viksit Bharat by 2047 even as it aims for net-zero emissions by 2070. With decarbonization demanding trillions in long-term capital, credit from the regular banking system won’t suffice.
