newRegulation please: AI doing its own medical research entails the risk of putting human lives in danger
AI-controlled laboratories that can run their own experiments and invent new cures could revolutionize medicine. Yet, such autonomy mustn’t go unregulated. Rogue agents can easily come up with deadly stuff that we may—or may not—live to regret.

AI diffusion across India’s farms will hinge on earning the trust of farmers as much as infrastructure
Pilot runs of AI tools that assist farmers work out well but often run into patchy networks while scaling up. Thankfully, at least pathways have been laid, allowing the rapid rollout of Amul’s Sarlaben, for example. But mass diffusion will take much more.
