Abhishek Singhvi Discusses Article 142 and Vice President's Remarks

Congress MP Abhishek Manu Singhvi has criticized Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar's remarks on the Supreme Court, stating that such comments were unnecessary for someone in his high constitutional role. Dhankhar's critique followed a Supreme Court ruling mandating that the President must decide on bills passed by state assemblies within three months. Singhvi emphasized that the Vice President should refrain from commenting on judicial matters, mirroring the practice of previous officeholders, including the President and Prime Minister. He defended the Supreme Court's use of Article 142, asserting it is a long-established constitutional power designed to ensure justice, and dismissed Dhankhar's concerns about it being misused. Singhvi highlighted that this power has been exercised responsibly over the past 75 years, countering claims that it represents unchecked authority. The backdrop to this discussion involves a legal dispute between the Tamil Nadu Governor and the state government over delayed bill approvals. sources

OpenAI's Reasoning Models "Hallucinate" Without Clear Explanation

OpenAI's newly launched o3 and o4-mini AI models are reportedly experiencing a higher frequency of hallucinations compared to the company's earlier reasoning models, according to a report from _TechCrunch_. Released on April 16, these models are designed to methodically process questions before answering. However, internal tests indicate they generate inaccuracies more often than non-reasoning models like GPT-4o, with OpenAI lacking a clear understanding of the cause. A former employee suggested that the reinforcement learning techniques employed may exacerbate issues typically addressed by standard post-training processes. While some experts believe these hallucinations could foster creativity, they pose challenges for businesses prioritizing accuracy. OpenAI is heavily investing in these models to compete with tech giants like Google and Meta, with the o3 model achieving a 69.1% score in coding ability tests. Additionally, a recent study found that frequent ChatGPT users may experience increased feelings of loneliness. sources

Employer Shocks Workers, Pulls Out Nails in Chhattisgarh

Two workers at an ice cream factory in Korba, Chhattisgarh, were allegedly tortured by their employer and an accomplice after being accused of theft. The victims, Abhishek and Vinod Bhambi from Rajasthan, were hired through a contractor by factory owner Chhotu Gurjar. On April 14, the pair were stripped, subjected to electric shocks, and had their nails pulled out, with a video of the abuse circulating online. After managing to escape, they returned to Bhilwara and filed a complaint, leading to a "zero" FIR by Rajasthan Police, which allows victims to report crimes at any station. The case was subsequently transferred to Korba police, who registered a formal complaint against Gurjar and his associate Mukesh Sharma. Abhishek claimed the assault was sparked by his request for an advance payment, which led to his dismissal. No arrests have yet been made as investigations continue. sources

Nehru Called Aurangzeb a Bigot and Cruel Ruler

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh has emphasized the national heroism of Maharana Pratap and Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, contrasting them with Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, whom he described as a "bigot" and "cruel ruler."

He reiterated that the BJP promotes equality among all Indians, drawing on ancestral values, amid ongoing political debates regarding Aurangzeb's legacy in Maharashtra. sources
