Chishti 7 Aug 2023 “The issue also arises whether the buildings belonging to a particular community are being brought down under the guise of law and order problem and an exercise of ethnic cleansing is being conducted by the State,” said the division bench of Justice G.S Sandhawalia and Justice Harpreet Kaur Jeewan. The Court took suo motu cognizance of news paper reports regarding the ongoing demolition drive in Nuh, Gurgaon which followed the communal clashes. Authorities have reportedly demolished several 'illegal' shanties, temporary shops and certain concrete structures, allegedly belonging to persons involved in communal violence which happened last week.

While noting that news item also says that the Home Minister himself has said that bulldozer are part of illaj (treatment) since the Government is probing communal violence, the Court remarked that, “power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely."

NYT Probe Unearths Links Between Chinese Propaganda in India & Abroad To US Tech Mogul Neville Roy Singham
Moneylife Digital Team 07 August 2023 https://www.moneylife.in/article/nyt-probe-unearths-links-between-chinese-propaganda-in-india-and-abroad-to-us-tech-mogul-neville-roy-singham/71600.html The authorities in India raided a news organisation tied to Mr Singham during a crackdown on the press, accusing it of having ties to the Chinese government but offering no proof.....From a think tank in Massachusetts to an event space in Manhattan, from a political party in South Africa to news organisations in India and Brazil, NYT tracked hundreds of millions of dollars to groups linked to Mr Singham that mix progressive advocacy with Chinese government talking points... Mr Singham told NYT that he does not work at the direction of the Chinese government. "But the line between him and the propaganda apparatus is so blurry that he shares office space — and his groups share staff members — with a company whose goal is to educate foreigners about the miracles that China has created on the world stage."..

These propaganda groups are funded through American nonprofits flush with at least US$275 million in donations.  .."Mr Singham's groups have produced YouTube videos that, together, racked up millions of views. They also seek to influence real-world politics by meeting with congressional aides, training politicians in Africa, running candidates in South African elections and organising protests like the one in London that erupted into violence. The result is a seemingly organic bloom of far-left groups that echo Chinese government talking points, echo one another, and are echoed in turn by the Chinese state media," NYT says

"I categorically deny and repudiate any suggestion that I am a member of, work for, take orders from, or follow instructions of any political party or government or their representatives," he wrote in an email to NYT. "I am solely guided by my beliefs, which are my long-held personal views." The son of a leftist academic, Archibald Singham, Mr Singham is a longtime activist who founded the Chicago-based software consultancy Thoughtworks,

Anurag Thakur Slams Congress Over Report On China, Tech Mughal Link  https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/anurag-thakur-slams-congress-over-report-on-china-tech-mughal-link-4274933 Union minister Anurag Thakur accused the Congress of defending US millionaire Neville Roy Singham and media portal NewsClick when they were investigated by law enforcement agencies in 2021.  August 06, 2023 https://twitter.com/ianuragthakur/status/1688198949453119488 "It is natural for the Congress to defend Neville and NewsClick because national interest never matters to its leadership. Isn't it the same Congress Party that signed an MoU with the CPC in the year 2008 to promote Chinese interest in India and allegedly accepted donations for the Rajiv Gandhi Foundation (RGF) from the Chinese embassy?"

In 2008, they had invited both Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi. In 2016, they were talking to the Chinese during the Doklam crisis,” the MP said. Dubey also alleged that claimed that NYT report explained how money was given to Maoists and journalists such as Rohini Singh Swati Chaturvedi.

From a Whatsapp post by PMS:

ARE YOU ANOTHER CHETAN SINGH?

What made Chetan Singh, the RPF Constable, to be the KILLER who otherwise was supposed to be the SAVIOUR of Rail Passengers?
As per his admission, it is clearly understood that he is being made into a monster with the communal hatred narratives day in and out he consumed through these news channels which we call Godi Media. Having said that, he is not the only one affected and have become a Zombie with such media narratives and endorsement by people in power.

....If you are still not ready to accept that the Godi News Channels spews communal hatred and Whatsapp forwards only feeds you with fake information, then you are unknowingly becoming another Chetan Singh.

.. FACT CHECK EVERY SOCIAL MEDIA FORWARDS… PREVENT YOURSELF AND SOMEONE FROM BECOMING ANOTHER CHETAN SINGH…

ChatGPT : Simple questions, not-so-simple answers By Raag Delhi - 27/04/2023  https://www.raagdelhi.com/chatgpt-manoj-pandey/  ChatGPT is an advanced chatbot.

Notice how the computer has moved from blurting out ready-made answers to generating responses, because it has been trained to do so; and from being dumb to understanding the human language and responding in the same way (in a way, becoming autonomous). When the chatbot is that powerful, it is ChatGPT: a chatbot that is Generative Pre-Trained Transformer...  Research on ‘understanding’ the human language is also in use for some years. For example, Google has evolved an advanced language model, called LaMDA, which is being used by it for producing relevant search results. Google has also released ‘Bard’, a language tool similar to ChatGPT. 

Making use of the capabilities of GPT technology, many apps and programs are being developed for doing professional tasks (e.g. coding, video and image editing, market research) in a jiffy and often with little professional skills.

GPT and search engines work differently. In response to user queries, the search engine gives out actual resources on the web, in the form of links, small snippets, images, videos, etc. On the other hand, a GPT tool uses the information fed into it (mostly in the form of web resources) and generates its own responses based on its training and other factors.
