As technology evolves, staying updated on the latest developments is crucial.
This week’s Tech Pulse brings you key tech and AI updates shaping industries, policy, and everyday life.
🧠 India’s AI Talent Shortage: A Growing Concern
India currently has fewer than 100,000 advanced AI professionals — and demand is projected to double by 2026.
This gap poses serious challenges for companies building AI agents, autonomous systems, and complex decision models.
→ Why it matters:
Bridging this talent gap is essential for India to remain competitive in the global AI race and unlock AI’s full potential across sectors.
🗣️ Sarvam AI Teams Up with UIDAI & Microsoft
Sarvam AI, under the IndiaAI Mission, is collaborating with UIDAI and Microsoft to develop an Indic voice large language model (LLM).
The model will enhance Aadhaar services with:
- multilingual voice interactions
- AI-driven support
- improved accessibility
→ Why it matters:
This could transform how millions access government services, especially non-English speakers — a major leap for public-service AI.
🐕 Indian Army to Deploy AI-Powered Robotic Dogs
In a modernization push, the Indian Army is set to replace pack mules with AI-powered robotic dogs for transport in high-altitude and remote terrains.
These robots can:
- withstand extreme temperatures
- navigate rough terrain
- carry logistics autonomously
→ Why it matters:
A strong signal that AI-driven robotics is entering national defense — and likely to inspire similar innovations in civilian sectors.
💻 Understanding “Vibe Coding”
Coined by Andrej Karpathy, vibe coding is a new programming paradigm where developers use natural language prompts to instruct AI systems to write code.
The developer’s role shifts from manually coding to:
- guiding AI outputs
- reviewing logic
- refining generated code
→ Why it matters:
Vibe coding could dramatically lower entry barriers to software development — but also raises concerns about:
- code quality
- security
- over-reliance on AI-generated logic
Thorough review will remain essential.
🧾 Summary
From AI talent shortages and IndiaAI collaborations
to military robotics and paradigm-shifting tools like vibe coding,
the tech landscape is more dynamic than ever.
Staying informed — and adaptable — is the key to navigating what’s next.
