Changing face of banking
I think the predominant aim of establishing a bank is to have deposits so that you can further your lending to aim at lower interest rates. But most of India have turned investors with the booming stock market. Very few are keeping money in bank accounts.
There are other advantages of having a bank, like insurance and mutual funds selling or selling of financial products.

Some lesser focused problems in medicine
1) There are millions of patients with undiagnosed diseases:
a) They are misdiagnosed, undiagnosed or proper therapy is not given.
b) There can be a platform for this. Very good doctors will be required.
c) AI can help
2) There are millions of patients with rare diseases
a) Most of these are rare genetic disorders.
b) Awareness and gene sequencing for diagnosis and therapy will be required.
c) The number of patients is too small to hold clinical trials.
d) Some solution to bypass trials will be needed. Maybe trials in animals combined with digital twins in multiverse can make it possible. They cannot completely substitute human trials but in patients with severe morbidity or threat to life, these can suffice.
e) Digital twins can be based on simulation of living cells. it can be a compelling use case for multiverse.
f) AI can play a big role. Protein and genome targets can be identified.
g) It might be difficult to produce gene therapy or protein therapeutics. mRNA might be possible. They can be given till a permanent solution is not found. Some analogues or gene inducers or suppressors etc. can also be possible.
3) One lakh documented hospitalized patients die of adverse drug reactions every year. These can be mitigated by use of digital twins. AI can help.
India can become a hub for this. Rest is for experts to see.

Custom colored diamonds
Lab grown diamonds can have fluorophores embedded in them. the color of fluorescence will depend on the color of incident light. There can be a battery powered source of light surrounded by color filter to produce any color of light. The battery can last for a few years like in a watch. This source can be placed at the center of lab grown diamond. The source and color can be controlled by a radio signal i.e., it can be put on and off while not being used and color of diamond can be customized according to the color of dress or environment using a smartphone or smartwatch or a remote controller. The user can buy a new diamond after the battery goes down or it will still be a diamond.

Jewellery stores of the future?
I have written this many times.
I think jewellery studio can be one possibilty. Have design portal and designers in your showrooms for customized designs like even names and photos etc.
The requirements of inventory etc. Will be much reduced. Maybe designs can be projected as holographic projections onto customers to try out. Maybe AR headsets can be used for a virtual showroom experience. A virtual showroom can be created like on metaverse.
Rest is for experts.
Having said this, it might not be possible to have all types of jewellery 3D printed. Maybe the stores can enter into collaboration with 3D printers 🖨 companies for research and development.

08/08/2024

Biocomputing
This might be possible. It is for experts to see.
Presently a biocomputer cannot do all types of calculations but I think it should be possible.
There are around 200,000 words in English. Each can be represented by a protein or amino acid or a combination of proteins or amino acids. Similarly, digits can be represented from 0-9 or say even up to 1 million or more.
The dendrites in neurons are able to identify input signals via voltage gated channels. The proteins can be picked up by RNA.
This should make the computer much faster than conventional computers. If the process can be interpreted, say at the level of mRNA then it can be even faster.

India as a transshipment and transit hub.
This will be a long process.
There is already a proposed transport line between India and Europe via the Middle East. Then connectivity to Chabahar port is also under consideration which is connected by rail to central Asia and even Russia.
The ships can come to the western Indian ports and then unload their cargo meant for India, even Nepal, Bangladesh and Bhutan. I think road and rail connectivity is being made to ASEAN via North East India. That might also be effective. It can go through Bangladesh as well. That should cut down on costs, time and be convenient.
Similarly, cargo can be transported from ASEAN to India and the West.
To further increase convenience, the western and eastern ports are already connected via rail; Maybe undersea rail can be laid down both towards Gulf and ASEAN if cost effective.
For transit hub, I think convenience and time savings will be the key. Maybe they can be built on strategically located islands like Andamans and Lakshadweep or there are a number of islands that are in India that are not even inhabited.
Rest is for experts to see.

07/08/2024

Cloud quantum computing
This should be possible.
Input a command into a small device something like a quantum modem. That communicates via quantum communication to modems of 3-4 quantum computers. This modem will be quantum entangled but not the quantum computers. That command is conveyed to the 3-4 quantum computers; they calculate and then send it back via entangled modem. The device will be having an AI software that will collate and make the results errorfree.
Quantum computers will be having so much compute that they will not be utilizing their entire compute all the time like datacenters so this can be done at no extra cost or infrastructures. Further the communication will be faster than the speed of light so should be instantaneous. Distance will not be a problem. There can be a worldwide network of quantum computers and whichever will be free can be used.
Efforts are on to make the process errorfree. They should also succeed. Whichever is the best or a combination can be used.

05/08/2024

India as a manufacturing hub
India plans to be a manufacturing hub. It has already jumped in to the top five manufacturing countries globally. The infrastructures are getting in place gradually for more investments.
India is focusing on electronics, textiles and garments, energy and automobiles among other things. There is focus on agriculture and that should also do well with time.
The strategy seems to be paying off.

05/08/2024

Indicator of economy
Some people say stock market is not an Indicator of health of the economy.
I think it is in the long term. It's possible that a company maybe overvalued but if investors are putting in money they must be earning it somewhere in the economy. So the economy must be doing ok unless it's quantitative easing but thats short term.
Other factor can be that money's coming from abroad. In that case they must be having confidence in the economy. So the economy must be doing ok.
Another factor can be that businesses are not doing well so people invest in stock markets as happened in Corona. But thats short term.

04/08/2024

What it takes to be a developed country?
I think the primary criterion should be quality of life.
I am living in Delhi so will speak of it.
All bills and utility services can be paid online like electricity, telecom, internet, DTH services, cooking gas, water, house tax etc. there are issues with services but still a lot has improved leading to better quality of life. If you want a connection of mobile, you can get it within half an hour.
Then retail services, food delivery, cabs, tuitions, even access to plumbers, electricians, carpenters and barbers, drugs etc. are all available online. The offline services are also available.
The lower income group does not have access to good homes and salaries are on the lower side. That will also improve with time. Health and education facilities are available in private as well as for free in government.
The negative sides are pollution and traffic congestions. After every rain there is waterlogging. Water and sewage treatment facilities, waste disposal, cleanliness etc. are not up to the mark. Law and order are OK. Commercial spaces are less. There is corruption in some departments. There is problem with the municipal corporation.
By and large it seems that quality of life is better. With IT and services, it might be possible to become a developed country at much lower Per Capita income.
Having said this, there is scope for a lot of improvement.

Nitrogen cycle on Mars
I think if this can be done, all problems will be solved.
Take Ammonium Nitrate and convert it to Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas). Release this nitrous oxide in to the atmosphere. It is a gas 300 times more potent than CO2 as green house gas. It will warm up Mars as well as add to thickening of the atmosphere of Mars. It is toxic to humans in high concentrations in long exposures so chemical protective clothing will have to be worn. But due to increased pressure vegetation will become possible on the surface of Mars. The trees can be genetically modified to convert Nitrous Oxide to Nitrogen. This nitrogen will be in the lower layers allowing humans to live freely on the surface while nitrous oxide can be in the upper layers causing heating of the planet.
Normal life can be pursued. The whole Nitrogen cycle can be established like on Earth.
If the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere exceeds more than the concentration of CO2 in the blood, diffusion will not occur and freely living life on the surface will not be possible i.e., will have to live underground or in domes.
The question is where can so much ammonium nitrate be brought from? One possibility is it might be present on Mars. The other possibility is that it be taken from Earth or Venus or Jupiter. That is a very difficult thing to do but can be possible by quantum teleportation. The other option can be that a magnetic wall is created on the area to be lived upon and the atmosphere is limited to this area. Slowly it can be extended. Another option can be that some other element found on Mars is converted to Nitrogen in a nuclear reactor.

Controlling prices of fruits and vegetables
I think modern warehousing is required. Varieties may be required that can be stored for long time.
Take the example of tomatoes. Buy in season when is Rs. 20 - 30 per kg and there's excess of it. Store it or make tomato puree out of it. Sell it in off season at 70-80 when it's 100-120 per kg and in short supply.
This cycle happens every year. It's 100% return in a few months.
This must be the case with other items as well.

02/08/2024

Safety in autonomous vehicles
There are various levels of safety in the systems but I think one more can be added.
In case of any threat, the vehicle can communicate via quantum communications. It will be faster than speed of light hence many orders faster than human reflexes. An emergency system can be activated that will override all other systems and swerve the car to the side and stop.

02/08/2024

Food for the growing population
The existing farming will go on as usual but this might also be required.
The world population might reach 10 billion by 2050. Agricultural land and resources are shrinking because of climate change and land degradation. More land cannot be deforested. We are already seeing migration from some areas.
There can be many ways to increase food production. This can be one way:
Produce rice and pulses and even milk via precision fermentation. Maybe the powder formed can be 3D printed or extruded. The other way can be that this powder if nutritious and tasty can be just mixed with water and cooked just like corn flakes or porridge. Fiber will also be required in the powder for health reasons.
India can become a big exporter of this type of food.
Rest is for experts to see.

01/08/2024

Production of pulses
India is the largest importer of pulses in the world. Pulses are consumed almost as staples in India especially among the vegetarians. The protein requirement fulfilled by pulses can be met through cultured meat in future but culturally pulses will still be required. the prices of pulses have also shot up in recent times. A large section of Indian population is still not able to afford pulses in diet. This demand will only increase as the per capita income rises.
A solution can be to produce constituents of pulses by precision fermentation and then 3D print them but I think that might be impractical and costly.
A way can be a thick pulses soup. The ingredients can be nutritious and tasty but in powder form. They can be mixed with water and cooked. A problem can be of cultural acceptance but I think will depend on how good it tastes. It might be worth trying out.
India can become an exporter of such pulses’ powder.

A good CEO
I think an ideal CEO will be someone who has both good IQ and EQ.

30/07/2024

Sports infrastructures in India
The government and the athletes spend through the nose to train abroad because of lack of infrastructures in the country.
Why don't some private persons build these world class infrastructures in India where these sportsmen can train. Have them preferably in cold areas or according to the demand of the individual sport. I don't think permission for this is required from any Sports body.
We have already discussed Sports education insurance. This can be another extension of that.
Foreign sportsmen will also come here to train if infrastructures are good.
These should be much cheaper for the sportsmen then going abroad and provide employment opportunities for sportsmen as well.

28/07/2024

Transgenderism
we have discussed this before partially.
Sexual dysphoria cannot be cured because we don’t know the reason for that so let them be whatever s*x they are oriented towards. They will be at peace with themselves. I think they can enjoy s*x after s*x change surgery. That is important. Maybe with brain machine interfaces, one day we may be able to solve this problem or find out the cause of problem and hence be able to treat it.
As for offspring, there have been advancements recently that somatic cells can be converted to o**m but the problem can be that they might be having Y chromosome so that may not be feasible. Fund research to convert somatic cells in to s***m. I think it should be possible. The somatic cells will have to be treated with some biochemicals. Then they can fertilize with any o**m to beget a child.
The other solution can be that form o**m from somatic cell. Two ova will be formed from one cell. One will have X and other will have Y chromosome if they are genotypically male. Select an o**m with X chromosome so they might be able to mate with a male s***m. This should be possible even today. If they are genotypically female then there is no problem at all.
I am not an expert but I think puberty blockers need to be given much earlier. They have limited use when given to a person who has already developed s*xual characteristics and organs and orientation? They can be accompanied with opposite hormones so that puberty happens naturally at natural age.
As discussed before screening should be introduced in schools so that action can be taken before the problem develops. Maybe AI can be used for this.

28/07/2024

HIV
Currently, treatment is lifelong. Maybe a few cells can be modified to secrete anti-HIV proteins whenever the level of HIV in blood are high. Otherwise, they will not be expressed.

28/07/2024

Allergy
A few cells can be modified such that they display a feed back loop. If the histamine level rises in the person these cells will secrete histamine destroying proteins and when the level of histamine returns to normal, these proteins will cease to be expressed and secreted. Maybe mRNA vaccines can also play this role.

28/07/2024

3D printed vaccines.
One problem is of thicker needle required that requires more force. I think it can be given intra venous as the rate of release is very slow. Even if it lodges in some capillary, it will keep on acting and won’t harm the child.
A second problem can be that in some children the vaccines cause adverse reaction in which further vaccines may have to be delayed. The 3D printed vaccine can be made such that in such a case a pill can be given that neutralizes the vaccine or modifies it so that it can be excreted in urine.
I think a similar approach can be adopted for TB therapy as well.

28/07/2024

Social entrepreneur
I have written this many times before and posted this also.
Maximum impact can be made by eliminating poverty or saving lives or improving education etc.
If country becomes developed that will be eliminating poverty. So one can contribute in this.
Saving lives: maximum impact can be made by reducing infant and maternal mortality through vaccines or through good medical facilities like for institutional deliveries or treating cancer.
Improving education: online courses can aid in this.
Cheap power can be a way of empowering people.
Working on climate change or environment protection like green plastics etc.
One can work upstream like doing r&d on these and changing production processes or innovating for substitutes. Or one can run campaigns to create awareness or create facilities for production.

Rest I think this depends on person to person. Pick and choose accordingly

One thing I think requires action is development of one dose multi valent vaccines. Today a child requires multiple injections. If that can be reduced to just one say at the time of birth it can eliminate a lot of diseases especially in developing countries.
Then in tb, treatment has to be taken for 6 months. If that can be reduced to single dose that will be great.

This is philanthropy. Entrepreneurs are interested in commercial projects. I think if you can make a commercial sense or self sustaining solutions out of any of these problems that will be great.

28/07/2024

Agrarian distress
India has developed 109 varieties of high yielding and climate resilient seeds. It's remarkable. Will this solve the agriculture distress? I think it will if they're effective as claimed.

27/07/2024

Fintech in India
This is in public domain but since some people want me to comment on this:
According to govt. data, the fintech market size in India is expected to touch USD 1.5 trillion over the next 2-3 years. There are a large number of players in this field. Among other things, big data analytics and AI will play a pivotal role in this industry. I think these might be the differentiators in the industry.

26/07/2024

AI and reasoning
Generative AI is based mostly on Large Language Models (LLM) or probability and patterns.
I think for reasoning if AI can form flowchart to every query and give results accordingly, it might do the job. Hallucinations may also not be formed.

25/07/2024

Loans for MSMEs
We have discussed this before.
Tie up with a 3D printers consultancy and provide loans for printers to msme and retailers.

Cosmetics
Another thing can be synbio manufactured cosmetics or better still 3Dprinted synbio manufactured cosmetics 💄.

25/07/2024

A payments card
I think this should be possible.
Have a calculator as thin as a card that can be kept in the physical wallet or pocket powered by light. Connect it to satellite and bank account. The user can type in anything. It can have it's software.
It should be possible to send and receive payments without need for anything else.

24/07/2024

Global capability centers
GCCs or global capability centers are opening in large numbers in the country. They will do many functions and research as well. It’s a very positive development and has been going on for many years. A lot of jobs are there. Then in IT, in electronics and around the same in semiconductors and then so many in manufacturing, services, start-ups, infrastructures creation and maintenance etc. I think this will go a long way in development of the country.
What is required is less red tape and skill development. Infrastructures have improved. In fact, everything has improved but there is scope for more.
The south already has a per capita of around USD 3-4,000. West is also good. Developed nations have around 10 - 12,000 but I think in terms of PPP these states are not far behind. In south not much push is required. South will keep growing. Push is required in the north especially the sick states. They will take a lot of time to reach this level. Some states do not have per capita of even USD 800 at the moment. But the good news is that awakening has happened and soon we should see all states progressing at rapid rate. I think if we will grow to thrice or four times the present GDP, we will become a developed country and this should take 15 years or more. Some states will achieve this sooner; others will take time.

23/07/2024

Simplification of GST
One way can be that there can be something like a toll tax revenue collection. Whenever a trade happens the tax is automatically deducted from the account. But I think the major problem is of refund to traders. For that an AI based system can be there. It can also be required if there is return of a good. the AI based system can automatically refund the money from the revenue department as well. the system will have to be very good otherwise it will create more problems than convenience. If there is any good or service that is not listed then manual process can always be done.
Similarly, it can be done for income tax. That can not be done on a spot basis but can be filed whenever is the due date and advance tax is also paid. That is again not a problem; the refund is a problem. The refund can be automatic AI based as submitted according to rules and laws laid down by the revenue department. Again the services will have to be very good.

22/07/2024

Editing embryos
Editing embryos is considered unethical at the moment because technology is not that developed.
However it's much easier to edit embryos than adults or even children.
It can be done effectively with current science, I mean the mode of delivery and will be much cheaper. Editing or therapy has proven to be pretty safe if done properly. The problem is more with effectiveness and mode of delivery.
I think for serious genetic conditions, this should be considered.
Rest is for experts to see.
