I was an active blogger a long time ago, and my old posts are still available over at angumingum.wordpress.com. I have created this new blog to start writing again.
Going forward, posts here will be written in both English and Tamil. Eventually, I will also move the posts from my old blog into this one so that everything is consolidated.
To kick things off, the first post here is a Tamil translation of Dario Amodei’s insightful article on the rapidly developing AI situation and how our policies should address it. It is a very eye-opening piece written by someone with close visibility to these technological developments. I thought this perspective should be widely read and discussed in the Tamil space, which is why I decided to translate it.
I did use AI’s help for the translation. The first rough draft was generated by Gemini, but I have made significant changes to that draft to improve the readability and ensure the ideas flow naturally in Tamil.
Welcome to the new blog!
