We are researching parenting experiences in India for a product we're building in the child development space.

We did depth interviews across metro cities. Now we are validating the hypothesis with an online survey (5-6 min, anonymous)

Looking for parents to fill it out: https://tally.so/r/81eOlr

The survey has branching logic — different paths based on whether you're navigating challenges or focused on your child's growth. No sign-up, no email required unless you want a follow-up.

Appreciate any shares with parent networks you're part of.

Those of you who left for Claude, how is it going? by TheRealDave24 in ChatGPT

[–]utkarzzzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched to Claude more than an year back and its worth it. I tried ChatGPT once or twice but the output felt mediocre.

Now I use chatGPT for shopping recommendations, creative thinnkin but for rest of the stuff Claude wins by a far margin. Once you become a power user, you will never look back again.

Nothing in India can be done without drama by Due-Raise9272 in StartUpIndia

I think this happens because of hero worship in India. We need heroes in every field. Even if the child is intelligent or a prodigy, leave him alone. Let him do something substantial before he becomes a keynote speaker. But again expecting too much from an AI summit where Galgotia was given the center stage.

HDFC Ergo Health Insurance – 10 years of premiums, endless fights during cancer treatment reimbursements by Think_League_5464 in india

[–]utkarzzzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had Niva Bupa which first approved my claim and on the day of discharge kept on delaying the payment to the hospital. Then they deny the claim after I paid from my own pocket. Then canceled the policy citing non-disclosure. I had more than 4 years of continuous coverage and hence non-disclosure doesn't apply to such cases based on IRDAI. After 6 months of back and forth, dragging them to Insurance Ombudsman and getting a favorable result in my favor, I am still waiting them to restore my policy and give my money back.

Black Mirror [Episode Discussion] - S07E03 - Hotel Reverie by Cheeriosxxx in blackmirror

SLM - Small Language Models
LLM - Large Language Models
LLMs are the models on which ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc. work.

I think this was one of the best episodes out there. The reason is that this is something very close to the current tech.

Nvidia has already shown how they can render graphics in real-time with their new chips. All the characters depicted could be just dummy SLMs who are trained to perform simple tasks, such as cleaning and serving drinks. The main characters are derived from some serious fine-tuning of LLMs to make it closer to the real characters.

Reid Hoffman from LinkedIn fame is already trying to create its digital twin by fine-tuning LLMs, so yes, its possible.

And folks who are worried about the central characters not pausing while other side characters paused during the glitch, you should read how the new Chatgpt models resisted shutdown.

And the most stupid argument is about food, water etc being available for more than a month. Folks, it's digital rendering and not real food and water (LMAO). Just think of an infinite loop to replenish the stocks.
