In Visakhapatnam Central Jail, learning skills for life away from crime

Published by Parlour News

Young men in crisp blue uniforms file quietly into a book-lined classroom, each carrying a stack of textbooks. In a room adorned with motivational slogans about discipline, hard work, and success, they settle into neat rows, waiting for the day’s lesson to begin. Moments later, trainer D. Venkata Sai walks in with a book tucked under his arm. The class rises to greet him before settling in for a practical session on computer hardware and system troubleshooting. Questions come thick and fast, and the discussion soon expands to how artificial intelligence is reshaping the technological landscape. At first glance, the scene appears to be that of a college or a skill development centre. But in reality, it is actually inside the Visakhapatnam Central Jail, and the students are not ordinary learners but remand prisoners, with the trainer being a convict prisoner. As it turns out, the young remand prisoners are participating in an innovative rehabilitation initiative called the ‘Office Assistant’ programme, launched by the Visakhapatnam Central Jail authorities in collaboration with the Skill Development Institute …

Ahaan Panday to showcase dance skills in Ali Abbas Zafar’s next after Saiyaara

Published by Webster

He is not an internet star, but even before he broke out with Saiyaara (2025), Ahaan Panday was already being talked about. The reason? His dance videos from sister Alanna Panday’s wedding had gone viral. While everyone expected Yash Raj Films (YRF) and Mohit Suri to cash in on it in his debut film, the director opted to keep his character intense. But here’s the clincher — fans wanted to see him dance. So, in his second, yet-untitled film directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, Ahaan will play the quintessential larger-than-life hero, complete with dance numbers. “Ahaan, [who is currently shooting in the UK], is going to can a dance number next month, prep for which is underway. A four-day shoot for the song is being planned in Manchester. The sequence will show Ahaan in his effortless best and that’s how Aditya Chopra and Ali want to present him onscreen,” informs a source, adding that the shoot will happen at the end of the UK schedule.

How AI is changing college education: exams, assignments, skills

How AI is changing college education: exams, assignments, skills

Published by Parlour News

With the release of ChatGPT in late 2022 and a range of other generative artificial intelligence (AI) platforms in the following years, college education has undergone a big disruption. Research and writing assignments that would keep students up at night catching up with deadlines can now be completed in a few minutes with well designed prompts. At the same time, after college, employers look for not just skills in the field but also AI capabilities. This puts educators in a situation where assignments have to be AI-proofed and, at the same time, AI-skills have to be imparted. The Indian Express spoke to educators in the fields of law, languages, and mass communication about how AI has changed their teaching methods. Law Professor Shashikala Gurpur, Dean of the Symbiosis Law School, said that AI makes research easier for students, and that she has noticed an increase in the quality, structure, and grammar of research. “But the sad thing is that I was reading a report that 90% of the PhD thesis in India now looks plagiarised. …
