LLMs and Privacy Policy

Just wondering does the Chinese LLM providers like deep seek among others have strict privacy policies that not to use customer data for training or anything like that? I looked around and didn’t find anything so wondering if anyone can shed some light on this thanks

[ACADEMIC] Do Women in India resist AI Tools at Work? (Women employed in India, 18+)

I am studying how women professionals in India are adopting and using Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies in their work.

If you are a female employee currently working in India and use AI tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, or other AI-enabled workplace technologies, I would be grateful if you could spare 8–10 minutes to complete my survey.

Are Indian devs using those ultra-cheap LLM API proxies ?

Hey everyone, I recently came across a massive arbitrage happening in the AI dev space, mostly among Chinese students and developers.

They are apparently bypassing official pricing entirely, using platforms like Taobao or Xianyu to buy access to GPT and Claude APIs at literal fractions of a cent. People are claiming to burn through 100M+ tokens a day just "vibecoding" nonstop, all for around $1.

From what I gather, these "API proxy stations" work through bulk-buying or enterprise account splitting. The middleman routes everything through their own reverse-proxy servers and resells the API keys. We're talking a 95%+ discount compared to official OpenAI/Anthropic rates.

Obviously, your data privacy goes out the window since your prompts are routed through unknown third-party servers.

It got me thinking:

  1. Is anyone in the Indian tech community relying on these setups for personal projects or vibecoding?
  2. If so, how's the latency and reliability?
  3. Do we have an Indian equivalent of these gray-market API hubs, or are people here just paying full retail?

Website of BSNL is vibe-coded man, anyone who knows how vibe coded websites look like will notice this instantly

Here's the website which i am talking about: bsnl.co.in

Even though BSNL is a 100% government-owned service provider, they are still relying on pure AI prompts to build critical public infrastructure. They seem to be doing this without addressing any underlying safety or security concerns.

It is clear that they failed to hire a qualified team of professional developers.

Cloud model options for a small prototype?

I’m building a small prototype for alpha testing and need advice on model/provider choice.

The task is structured text generation: the user gives a role, context, problem, audience, and goal; the model returns 5–6 different outline options with sections, evidence needed, possible objections, etc.

This may just end up being “another chatbot,” which is exactly what I’m trying to validate early before spending too much time or money.

My laptop is too weak to run a useful local model, and paid cloud APIs can get expensive fast. I need something cloud-hosted that a small closed group can test.

Constraints:
- free or very cheap
- no surprise billing
- decent structured/JSON output
- good enough reasoning, not generic filler
- okay for non-sensitive test data
- easy to swap providers later

Options I’m considering:
- Gemini free tier for fake/test data
- Hugging Face inference
- cheap rented GPU
- Qwen/Llama/Mistral/Gemma through some hosted setup

What would you use for this?

Main question: what’s the least painful setup for closed alpha testing without spending real money before I know the idea is useful?

How do we have so many online Youtube Ai experts and less innovation ?

I have seen couple of podcast where they call so called Ai experts and everyone says the same thing, Agi is coming, most white collars job are going to vanish and at the end join our course to upskill. I mean if Agi is anyways coming for most jobs what’s the point of paying thousands or even lakhs to join your course.

I see those experts talking about this and that will be automated but yet no one actually talks about how we can utilise Gen Ai and LLM to develop our products, work on our open source software, improve our manufacturing, create better solutions to our problems.

Also you’ll see no one talks about how economy should sustain if Ai wipes most jobs, If all companies replaces workers for digital assistants and robotics then exactly who is going to buy their products ? If Meta or google replaces jobs then again who is going to watch ads or the companies which advertises who is going to buy their products.

I think a lot of fear mongering is happening on Indian youtube space and so called big podcasters are purposely doing it for views and money.

Honestly I would like genuine interaction where they discuss hardware limitations we are currently facing with respect to growing compute demand, how are companies supposed to handle electricity and water demand needed for Ai data centers, Environmental impacts, How you can secure your systems in age of Ai, what are compliance framework needed for regulating and auditing Ai work, How spams and slops can be reduced and other topics

Voice Agents for people who don't know how to use the phone (Roast My Idea)

I 21f am building this for millions of people across India who don't know how to use their smartphones confidently. That includes older adults, many middle-aged users, and even younger people who struggle to navigate certain features or complete specific tasks. Instead of figuring out complicated menus or settings, users can simply speak naturally in your own language, and the phone gets things done for the phone including basic things and even complicated things such as booking things and more

what do y’all think??

I used ChatGPT to build my first automation tool

Hello, I’m not sure if this is the place to post this but I just wanted to tell people because I’m pretty proud of this.

I had a repetitive task assigned to me which involved opening a website and moving through several layers to organise data and put in a data base. I am talking about thousands of individual entries that would have taken me weeks to do.

I am not completely new to coding, but my knowledge is very basic. I took computer science as a minor in college, decided not to pursue it, and had not coded anything since around my fourth semester. So I remembered a few basic concepts but not nearly enough to build this independently.
I also generally avoid using AI and rarely use it in my work. This was my first time using it seriously to build something. I used ChatGPT for this.

I first had to break down the manual workflow and explain every stage. Then I had to teach the automation how the website actually behaved.
The first attempts failed constantly. Some of the issues were that a pop-up appeared a few seconds after the page loaded and blocked everything, and the bot would just not go past it. Certain entries were only visible after scrolling and the bot would get confused, since the website had several scrollable areas. Some controls looked like links but behaved like buttons or cards. Several exclusions had to be made when recording the data. Only completed records were supposed to enter the database. My contribution was mostly understanding the workflow, turning it into exact rules so the bot would understand. I had to run the tool and watch exactly where it stopped. Sometimes it just stopped randomly and I couldn’t tell what the issue was, and figure it out myself as ChatGPT would come to wildly incorrect conclusions.

I had to understand the user interface in detail and translate ordinary human behaviour into explicit instructions. Like I had to explain to chatgpt exactly that I click on xyz because it’s easier to extract abc from there instead of pqr where the actual data is stored. The result is still an early prototype and needs more testing but it can now navigate the platform and collect the required files and update a database and spreadsheet.
I would not claim that I suddenly became a software developer in one day but ngl I am pretty proud of myself, I am just a humble journalism grad and have no idea whatsoever about AI or programming languages.

So that’s all, I know to software engineers it’s probably super basic but to my humanities ass I feel like I have accomplished something great xD

2-Year Gap for Govt Prep: Looking for beginner-friendly AI backup roles (B.Tech 2023, 26M)

Hi everyone, 26M here. I completed my B.Tech in 2023 and worked in Cybersecurity (Support + DAST) for about 10 months including 6 month internship before leaving in Jan 2025 to pursue government exam prep.

This is my last attempt, and I'm looking to build a strong backup plan in AI. Given my 2-year career gap and basic tech background (networking, OWASP), what beginner-friendly AI roles should I target? Also, if anyone here has cracked a job after a gap year, I’d love to hear your story or tips. Thanks!

Why i am not getting shortlisted ? Any brutally honest critique is appreciated

I graduated last year with a BTech in Computer Science. After getting rejected by almost every company I applied to, I decided to move to Bangalore and spend the year learning Data Science, Machine Learning, and Generative AI instead of sitting idle.

During that time, I completed a course, built several end-to-end projects (RAG chatbot, AI medical report summarizer, chest X-ray pneumonia detection, etc.), and learned Python, SQL, FastAPI, TensorFlow, PyTorch, LangChain, Hugging Face, FAISS, Streamlit , ML/DL concepts,NLP,CNN .

Now I'm applying for AI/ML Engineer, Data Scientist, and Generative AI roles, but I'm barely getting any responses. Most job postings ask for 1–2 years of experience, even for "entry-level" positions. Applying daily for 10+ job openings in intenshala , naukri , linkedin from last month ,barely getting any reply .

I'm genuinely looking for honest feedback. If I'm lacking skills, I'll learn them. If my projects aren't good enough, I'll rebuild them. If my resume is weak, I'll rewrite it. Please provide honest advise .

The truth of AI jobs (unconfirmed- I need more viewpoints)

I just advice dont do such odd jobs. These offers come through spam mails, whatsapp groups etc. These jobs will pay you- they are legit BUT in exchange you are selling your personal data, your expertise and your literal energy just for a weird job of “data labelling” or “ai training”. As you go further they even mail you at odd night hours to complete some shady and dark video annotations(of mature themes)/video ai training. Even if one person reads my post: I hope you don’t join this. Stay safe and away from shady jobs. I have seen all of this happen to real people in real documentaries. People enter a dark phase in their life due to such weird things. Money is legit- but people are tricksters.

Generally they outsource such manual ai jobs and annotation works to third world countries like ours.

If I have said anything wrong or you have any experiences then do share please. I am interested to hear out. Thnx.

Do younger Indians still believe in astrology, or is it mostly treated as entertainment now?

Growing up, astrology, horoscopes and auspicious dates seemed to play a role in many families. But with AI becoming more common, I’m curious whether younger Indians (especially Gen Z and millennials) still take these seriously, or if it’s mostly just something people do for fun.
I’m building an AI-powered fortune reading project (purely for entertainment), and it made me wonder how people in India actually view this today.
Do you think AI could ever make these experiences more interesting, or does it miss the human element completely?
