The Anti-India Conspiracy Exposed

 The video "Modi Shah को 14 November को उड़ा देना का था Plan! Plan A Fail तो Plan B भी Ready!" by The Alternate Media (26 mins, Nov 13, 2025) is a speculative, conspiracy-laden Hindi analysis claiming a Pakistan-ISI orchestrated plot to assassinate PM Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah on November 14 (likely tied to a fictional Delhi event or security drill). Key points:

- **Plan A (Failed Assassination)**: ISI allegedly planned a suicide bombing or drone strike during Modi's public appearance in Delhi on Nov 14, using sleeper cells in West Bengal/Bangladesh (via Chittagong port and "Chicken Neck" corridor). Links to the prior Red Fort blast (Nov 10), with ammonium nitrate explosives smuggled from PoK via Bangladesh. RAW/IB foiled it through intel from Russia/China, arresting 20+ suspects (including Lashkar-e-Taiba operatives posing as traders). Blames Mamata Banerjee/TMC for aiding infiltration in Bengal.

- **Plan B (Backup Chaos)**: With Plan A exposed, Pakistan shifts to hybrid warfare—cyber attacks on India's grid/power, fake protests in Manipur/Northeast to spark civil unrest, and economic sabotage (fake currency floods from Bangladesh). ISI chief Asim Munir reportedly met Yunus in Dhaka to revive 1971-style two-front threats. US/Trump's pro-Pakistan tilt is accused of ignoring proofs India shares.

- **India's Counter**: Modi vows "full elimination" in a Bhutan speech; Ajit Doval leads NIA ops dismantling networks across UP, Gujarat, J&K. Predicts "Operation Sindoor 2.0" escalation, possible PoK strikes, and border redrawing. Shah's emergency meetings with forces; no mercy for conspirators. Warns of nuclear risks but urges Hindu unity for "permanent solution" against Pakistan/Bangladesh jihadism.

- **Broader Narrative**: Frames it as US-backed regime change (like Bangladesh 2024 coup), with opposition/Congress as internal pawns. Calls for viewer support via donations; tone is alarmist, patriotic, and unverified, urging "Sanatani" vigilance.

Sam Altman’s 2030 predictions

Summary — 

1. We’ve crossed the “superintelligence threshold”

Altman believes we have already passed the event horizon for digital superintelligence.

Even though its full impact isn’t yet obvious, people already rely on AI for daily tasks, and in some areas AI is smarter than humans.

2. Step-by-step AI development

2025 – “Thinking” AI agents that can handle complex tasks like coding will become mainstream.

2026 – AI will be able to make original discoveries and innovations.

2027 – Robots capable of performing real-world tasks will arrive.

3. Massive productivity boost for individuals

By the 2030s, the average person will be far more productive compared to 2020—especially those who embrace AI tools early.

4. Life will still feel familiar

Even with rapid tech changes, people will still enjoy family, creativity, play, and nature. The changes will be powerful but may feel gradual in daily life.

5. Impact on jobs and the economy

Entire categories of jobs may disappear.

AI will become cheaper and more widely available as robots and automation build their own infrastructure.

Ensuring safety and alignment with human values before mass deployment is critical.

6. Gradual but profound change

Altman expects people to adapt to change quickly, just as we’ve adapted to other technological shifts. The fundamentals of human joy will remain, but opportunities and challenges will be reshaped by AI.

---

In short:

Altman predicts that AI will surpass human-level capabilities in many fields within this decade, reshape productivity, and introduce powerful new tools—while still leaving the core human experience intact. However, safety, fairness, and ethical design will be essential to avoid risks.
