Since then, AI personas, replicas and digital twins, have come of age. In 2023, an actors’ union went on a strike demanding protection from generative AI applications. While AI replicas and… ## [Systemic Omens - AI and Work](https://muskdeer.blogspot.com/2026/02/systemic-omens-ai-and-work.html) _2026-02-26 · Shashank Yadav · The Task Is Not Impossible_ I want to draw parallels between two species-wide disturbances which really shook faith in existing systems. Systems is a fine abstract word which covers all we may be interested in - from social and political to technical - and as John Gall has aptly articulated, we live immersed in a new age of faith, the age of 'faith in systems'. Both of these two disturbances which I concern myself with… ## [A Manifesto for Data Realism](https://muskdeer.blogspot.com/2025/10/a-manifesto-for-data-realism.html) _2025-10-01 · Shashank Yadav · The Task Is Not Impossible_ The contemporary discourse on data governance has been compromised by Data Idealism which approaches data as primarily a social and techno-legal artifact. There are islands of data idealism, such as data ethics, "Free Flow with Trust", data decolonisation, data feminism, ethical AI development and others which basically suggest that much of the social, political, and economic consequences of our… ## [Some Cheeni Technicalities](https://muskdeer.blogspot.com/2025/05/some-cheeni-technicalities.html) _2025-05-18 · Shashank Yadav · The Task Is Not Impossible_ Recently, for an academic workshop I had to submit a brief on China as a latecomer in global technology standardisation. Notwithstanding the Napoleonic assessments of the waking of a sleeping giant, I argue that the Chinese “latecoming” in global technology standardisation has been more of a “coming of age” instead. As Kurt Campbell and Rush Doshi note , presently China has twice the manufacturing… ## [Infrastructuring AI in the Postcolony](https://muskdeer.blogspot.com/2025/02/infrastructuring-ai-in-postcolony.html) _2025-02-01 · Shashank Yadav · The Task Is Not Impossible_ The root of all evil is a premature policy optimization. In the few decades of the history of computing in India there have been some spurts of proactivity, but by and large other than a large bodyshop in IT, we have been comfortable in a mode largely reactive to global developments, with an industry making negligible contribution to computing technologies. Just after liberalisation, C. R.…
