New Delhi: In a recent 6,000-word essay, the Microsoft co-founder called for some jobs to be protected as “human-reserved” roles, arguing that governments are not preparing quickly enough for the disruption AI could create in employment and society. Gates compares the idea to nature reserves. Just as certain areas are protected from development, he believes some forms of human work may need protection from complete automation. The concern is straightforward: AI systems are moving beyond simple chatbots and are increasingly capable of handling research, coding, analysis, customer service, design and other knowledge-based tasks. That could increase productivity, but it could…

New Delhi: Elon Musk’s fortune has experienced one of the most dramatic swings in billionaire history in 2026.

New Delhi: India’s banking system is facing an unusual liquidity situation. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is moving aggressively to absorb surplus cash after liquidity in the financial system rose to unusually high levels. Recent estimates put the surplus at around ₹6.65 lakh crore, creating a major challenge for the central bank as it tries to keep short-term interest rates stable. The situation is closely linked to a sharp increase in foreign-currency deposits. Large inflows into FCNR(B) deposits have brought substantial foreign money into India’s banking system.
