Hello Readers,

Did you hear?

Russia is still attacking Ukraine!

The Russia-Ukraine war, which has been going on for over 3 years, is showing no signs of stopping as Russia is stepping up its attacks on Ukraine. Over the past week, Russia has pummeled multiple cities in Ukraine with missile and drone strikes as peace talks appear to be making no progress. A missile attack on Kharkiv on Good Friday killed one and injured 112 people, including 9 children! Moreover, a Russian drone strike hit a bakery in Sumy, killing another! What is Zelensky saying?

Ukraine claims China is arming Russia!

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who is currently in Paris for a high-stakes meeting with multiple European and US politicians, slammed Russia’s attacks on civilian infrastructure and accused China of supplying Russia with gunpowder and weapons! Days after capturing Chinese nationals fighting for Russia, Zelensky announced that they had intel suggesting that Chinese representatives were producing weapons on Russian territory! China denied the accusations as “groundless” and claimed that China continued to promote a ceasefire and encouraged peace talks! What about the peace talks?

US will abandon the Russia-Ukraine peace deal!?

While President Trump has been gunning for a Russia-Ukraine peace deal to end the 3+ years long war, his patience appears to be wearing thin. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio recently announced that the US would “move on” from the peace deal if there was no progress in the coming days! “We are now reaching a point where we need to decide whether this is even possible or not,” Rubio said, claiming the US had other priorities! This would be a major blow to Ukraine, which relies on the US for support. What else?

The US and Iran are discussing nuclear weapons!

The US and Iran met in Rome to hold their second round of talks to discuss Tehran’s rapidly advancing nuclear weapons program. This is a landmark effort by both sides to diffuse rising tensions and end the decades-old nuclear weapons issue. Trump is insistent on Iran not having any nuclear weapons and has revived his “maximum pressure” campaign on Iran. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi supports a nuclear deal but calls for realistic demands and expresses concerns about the US’ intentions!! What else?

US airstrikes killed 74 in Yemen!!

The US is still attacking the Yemeni Houthis in retaliation for their attacks on ships in the Red Sea. For those unaware, the Yemeni Houthis have been attacking ships in the Red Sea in support of Palestinians, and recently revamped their attacks to pressure Israel and resume aid into Gaza! Recently, the US launched airstrikes on the Ras Isa oil port, resulting in massive explosions, over 70 dead, and 170 injured! The Houthis have vowed to continue their war against Israel and retaliate against America’s aggression!! The US could cause lasting peace or a bigger war as it plays a major role in the global political landscape.

Speaking of global, did you hear? Generative AI is in demand globally!?

Since the launch of ChatGPT in late 2022, the world has been incorporating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in almost every aspect. Today, AI is helping with legal work, medical prescriptions, lunch recommendations, and so much more. Every new smartphone model is being incorporated with some AI model that makes life much easier for us.

Generative AI is making work more efficient in the workforce while improving accuracy. But how?

• Automating Repetitive Tasks – AI can handle routine tasks like data entry, report generation, and email responses, freeing employees for strategic work.

• Facilitating Collaboration – AI tools like real-time translation and transcription improve communication across global teams.
• Reducing Human Error – AI-driven automation ensures accuracy in financial calculations, compliance checks, and data processing tasks.

Considering its importance and benefits, companies are heavily investing in it or planning to! According to a study by McKinsey, most C-suite respondents already have roadmaps to guide their Gen AI strategies and have begun identifying use cases. However, only 1% of respondents believe their AI investments have reached maturity while 92% plan to invest more in the next 3 years!

This indicates that the market is all set to grow more in the next 5 years!!

Moreover, Indian companies are also taking this trend seriously. HCL Tech has announced its plan to train 20,000 employees in Generative AI every quarter!
