If the work is really detailed and like easy for you to get wrong and high stakes, high consequences if you get it wrong, you want to really like have a division of labor where specialists do that part.
And you just use what they come up with.
And uh so it seems to me that like maybe in sort of like pure intellectual research areas there's a similar situation where heavy duty stats number crunching is involved, because it's so finicky, it's so error prone, beginners make huge mistakes, it's hard for them to avoid making huge mistakes and the consequences are dire when those huge mistakes happen.
This is maybe another situation in which it's helpful to have that division of labor.
Fit old Vien Czech.
Thanks so much for coming on.
Thanks for having me.
Hello, and welcome to Elucidations, an unexpected philosophy podcast.
podcast-host
I'm Matt Teichman, and with me today is Shruti Rajakopalan.
podcast-host
Senior Research Fellow at the Mercatus Center, Fellow at the Classical Liberal Institute at New York University School of Law, host of the Ideas of India podcast, which I recommend you check out, and author of the Get Down and Shruti Substack, which I also highly recommend you check out.
podcast-host
And she is here to discuss talent in India.
podcast-host
Shruti Rajagopalan, welcome.
podcast-host
You know, before we actually talk about India, I have to ask.
podcast-host
So your sub stack is called Get Down and Shruti.
podcast-host
Is that to suggest that you are a form of dance which people can get down and do?
podcast-host
Amazing.
podcast-host
OK, so talent in India.
podcast-host
Your inaugural Substack post was about kind of recent developments in India, in the economy, in culture and technology.
podcast-host
And the main argument that I got from that piece was we should really be keeping our eye on India.
podcast-host
So I thought maybe I'd open by asking, what does it mean to keep an eye on a country?
