  • India 2047: The debate between Nehru and Hayek (using AI)
    Apr 29 2024

    Throughout history, countless stories have been told by various voices, each contributing their unique tale to the passage of time. What if we could bring these stories to the forefront of our discussions today, engaging with the ideas of those who have shaped our world, even long after they've passed away? This concept, once only seen in science fiction, is now a reality.

    Welcome to a special episode of "Connecting The Dots," a podcast dedicated to exploring the intersections of thought, society, and liberty across India, Europe, and beyond. Today's episode is groundbreaking—a unique venture where we transcend time not through mere recollection, but through the remarkable capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI).

    Imagine the renowned economist and philosopher F.A. Hayek, known for his Austrian School of Economic Thought, engaging in conversation with Jawaharlal Nehru, India's first Prime Minister and advocate of a mixed economy model. These two intellectual giants from the past are brought together to discuss India's current path toward Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of a developed nation by 2047. While speculative, this dialogue promises to provide profound insights drawn from Hayek's and Nehru's original philosophies.

    Join us as we witness history being reexamined and reshaped on "Connecting The Dots."
