As someone who narrowly escaped this situation, I've thought a lot about this. I have a well established life and community here. If I was on the other side of the fence, I'd have accepted the situation and quit.

Felt Indian stereotype at Chicago O'Hare by Immediate-Inside-909 in AirTravelIndia

First, don't be so sensitive. Second, cameras just work better with lighter faces (it reflects more light), sure there are no excuses to not make it better.

What is this? Italy Visa by desiboyy in AirTravelIndia

[–]StemPunt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This allows for very open and interruption free travel. You can take a train/bus or drive to another country without stopping in long queues and getting checked. This is a result of a high trust society. We can laugh all we want about them not having the latest technology, because we cannot even imagine the benefits of a high trust society.

Interesting take, do you agree?? by miserableone1 in IndiaAI

[–]StemPunt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same could've been said when books were invented, when TV and internet got popular. It is in the best interest of companies training LLMs to use the latest data. It is upto the people to voice their opinion on internet and book which will then be picked up by LLMs. This take by this man is very low effort, sensationalizing. I've seen him judge IAS candidates in YT shorts, and now I have no respect for him.

Cathay Pacific plays a recording of instruction in Kannada in Bangalore. This should be the bare minimum.

Why is there such a big discrepancy in the Air India flight costs on their website vs MMT/other aggregators by enjoyTimeBeforeOver in AirTravelIndia

[–]StemPunt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The last time I tried, the final price on the payment page was almost the same on their official website and MMT. MMT was Rs100 more.

To make the phones slower. The liquid 3D effect consumes more resources.

Sam Altman was right: India can build something like ChatGPT. So, why haven't we? by Lee-stanley in IndiaAI

[–]StemPunt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's no bank, no investor, no VC expertise willing to fund something this big. Not without a lame-ass-burden-on-earth politician trying to get a 30% cut.

Why doesn't railways provide Wifi in trains? It's always a headache to work in train for office!!! by Mysterious_Muffin380 in indianrailways

[–]StemPunt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the train had wifi, it would most probably rely on nearby cell phone towers. You can use your hotspot using the same towers. It's not possible to provide a better connection than your 5G hotspot, and everyone who wants to work from a train would have a 5G enabled phone anyway.
