STAT & STATE Complexity, Clarified Rigorously researched, sourced from official datasets, and explained with clarity.
Artificial Intelligence New evidence on how AI is actually used at work finds no unemployment shock among the most exposed workers, and none yet among the class of 2026. It finds something quieter instead: fewer young people getting in. What that means for emerging economies like India, for policy, and for anyone whose sense of self is bound up with a job.
Health The world is losing weight. It's also losing muscle. Crash diets, GLP-1 drugs, and caloric restriction all strip lean mass alongside fat. The science of protein, resistance training, and metabolic adaptation says there's a better way, but the data is complicated.
Climate A rock-ice avalanche on Langtang Lirung sent more than 100 million cubic metres of debris into the Bhote Koshi river system on 26 August 2026. What followed is the deadliest cryosphere-driven disaster in Nepal's recorded history.
Artificial Intelligence In 1966, ELIZA could fake a therapy session using twenty lines of pattern-matching script. In 2026, an AI agent browses the web, executes code, fact-checks its own claims, and delivers a finished research brief without a human touching a keyboard. Here is the data behind the most compressed capability leap in technology history.
Education Universal enrollment was supposed to level the playing field. But a deep dive into ASER and UDISE+ data reveals that where a child goes to school is still their destiny.
Economy India is officially the world's fastest-growing major economy. But behind the headline growth rates lies a complex puzzle of services-led output, low-productivity jobs, and stark regional divides.
Climate Every year, Mumbai gets hammered by the monsoon. Streets flood. Trains stop. And somehow, the city still runs out of drinking water. Here's the data behind the paradox.
Artificial Intelligence How a 2-billion-parameter model, a 4,096-GPU grant, and two DPI veterans are building India's answer to the global AI race.
Demography & Markets India's fertility rate has crashed below replacement level. Its IVF industry is about to triple. Both stories are true, and they're connected.
