This episode needs to be seen by as many parents and teachers in India as possible. Ajay Shah nails the problem point by point and accurately too. Extremely complex topic, broken down into digestible chunks of insight, pure and succinct. NPTEL was a great initiative in that regards. It put really high quality education out for the masses. Lectures from Yale, Stanford,MIT have some wonderful courses for free.

Thanks for sharing your insights-rich, profound, and thought-provoking as always. The idea of choosing 100,000 instead of 20,000 and selecting based on luck sounds like a direction worth exploring. It's really painful to see young losing their charm and dynamism, becoming stereotyped and stagnant. Additionally, courses like those for doctors fall into the service category. When so many youths today show little passion for interacting with others, it raises the concern about how they can succeed in service industries that demand compassion and empathy? Day in day out we come across doctors who dislike interacting with patients, cant stand crowded places and dont understand the value of services...

Thank you so much for these videos sir, i wanted to share something with you - My main purpose for getting into civil services is - to handover the potential of various systems and market spaces from government to people itself, a decentralised flexible purview to good governance. This is what i have been learning along all the podcast episodes, state needs to focus on its core areas instead of meddling into complex mechanisms. India is too grand a market for 2-3 chairs to ruin its destiny. So the idea is to sit in one of those and do the transition demographics have been longing for. Would love to know your thoughts ❤

Dear Amit and Ajay, This episode is a complete banger. I remember a quote under discussion during an event at Centre for Civil Society; " Everyone wants to live at at the expense of the state while they forget the fact that the state lives at the expense of everyone else" relating this quote with the discussion theme here, it seems our high school education system hardly even touched on "role of the state" in subjects like civics at high school level atleast ( an intrinsic observation here is infact our education system believe social sciences are just unnecessary for a student and comparatively focus more on the STEM which would fetch more jobs later, another narrowed thought) To recollect an another instance, In one of your another chat, there was a mention about how the functioning of our state right from our independence and until rhe economic reforms have a serious impact on how our society perceived power and role of the state; the more closer we are to people who are working for the state inside the state, the more our lives are sorted; isn't this a reason why do we see a majority of young population today frenzy ahout working for the govt and hence more demand for so called public jobs? At the same time our high school ed failed to incorporate required learnings.

The Indian state, with its coercive practices, poses a significant challenge, making life increasingly difficult for all Indians.

Funnily enough i had a interview with Ashoka university's YIF program and remember mentioning the ideas of public policy and i took the case of New Pension scheme (Ajay and kelkar's brain child) and me mentioning how we can try and use predictive analysis and reinforcement learning agent for gaming and seeing possible outcomes for public policy suggestions I got the admission, sadly ended up not going becuase of an offer in IIT (regretted my decision!! , all the problems and more are always there in IITs ) Joined here as a research student (Mtech R don't need a GATE score , they just need an -- again stupid metric NIRF ranking from previous college ) and i get weird sympathy looks for students and had a student tell me that since you are not GATE background must be really hard for you and had a professor tell me that maybe it is too hard, and since IIT isn't for you, then should be no shame in quiting and going back to my day job

The LLM capabilities pose a challenge to an ETS style testing. India is pretty bad at curbing cheating across 10k centers on a daily basis. The brain power to solve these questions were a constraint earlier, which is beginning to be addressed by the new language models.

I recently finished listening to the TSATU episode featuring Vitalik Buterin. Cryptocurrency could be a good theme for one of the EIE episodes, as there is still a very poor understanding of it in the real world.

Your solutions within the paradigm are not equitable for a country with such high inequality. They will result in other ways of gaming. I got so put off that I didn't wait for solutions outside the paradigm.

Since you mentioned Sapolsky's Behavioural Biology course. I'd also very highly recommend Justice by Michael Sandel kzbin.info/aero/PL30C13C91CFFEFEA6
