“We have to place our attention on humanizing artificial intelligence by removing the biases from algorithms rather than dehumanizing it.”
Abhijit Naskar

Abhijit Naskar
“In a world full of greedy edisons, be a humble Tesla,
Time remembers no oligarch kindly no matter the status.
Only innovators who get engraved in people's heart,
Are the ones who innovate with a humane purpose.”
Abhijit Naskar, Corazon Calamidad: Obedient to None, Oppressive to None
