Namaste Uncle,
All your blogs are mind blowing and too advanced. Whatever you suggested 5 to 10 years ago are being considered now. Amazing.
In this context i want to ask you one question uncle. What are your predictions for next 10 years. After 10 years what my children and students are going to face.
Thank you.

World Network Vs SUIIC Vs NATGRID
Almost 5 years ago, I proposed that our Government collate all data of all “ Personal Identifiers “ , into a Single Unique Identity for Indian Citizen ( SUIIC ) , through a web-platform and call it :
YUP = Your Unique Profile
This will create YUP for each and every Indian Citizen
It could , conceivably , eliminate National Census ( carried out once in 10 years – with last one overdue from 2021 ) and NPR ( National Population Register )
My detailed proposal can be viewed at :
Ø I am One , I will become Many …………. 06 Jan 2020
Then , 3 years later , in April 2023 , Govt of India , launched NATGRID , which heavily borrowed upon the features described in my above mentioned 2020 blog
This was reported in :
NATGRID to turn lens on digital print of people, firms………... 27 April 2023………. Business Line
Now , from the following news report, it appears that Sam Altman ( OpenAI ) is about to scale up his own project ( World Network ) to provide a UNIQUE IDENTITY to all the 8 BILLION people of the entire world
Context :
Sam Altman’s Eye-Scanning Orb Has a New Look—and Will Come Right to Your Door .. Wired .. 17 Oct 2024
Extract :
He teamed up with technologist Alex Blania to turn the idea into a reality. In a world of rapidly advancing AI, they theorized, it would be important for a human to prove they were not a bot.
The answer they came up with relied on individuals using iris-scanning tech to generate private tokens that would verify their identities around the world.
Worldcoin, then, is the ultimate attempt at tech solutionism: A human-grade AI world that Altman is building might also be technologically regulated by a tool that Altman has his hands in.
------------------------------
------------------------------ --
This latest attempt of Sam Altman made me wonder :
Ø What features have Worldnet and NATGRID borrowed from YUP ?
Ø To what extent are these easy ( or difficult ) to implement ?
Ø With arrival of AI tools , can NATGRID morph into YUP ?
Upon raising these questions, ChatGPT ( owned by none other than Sam Altman ) , came up with following table :
Comparison Table: Sam’s World vs. Hemen’s YUP vs. NATGRID :
Feature
Sam’s World
Hemen’s YUP
Govt of India’s NATGRID
Extent to Which NATGRID Resembles YUP
Centralized Identity Management
Unified identity for all citizens, linked across platforms
Unified identity through SUIIC (Single Unified Identity for Indian Citizen), merging all identifiers without forms
Centralized database integrating various records (PAN, passports, NPR, etc.)
High resemblance; NATGRID centralizes identity but not yet merged as a single virtual card.
Data Integration
Consolidates data from all personal, financial, and social networks
Integrates data across different government and private sources without requiring separate forms
Collects data from airports, railways, PAN records, banks, telecom providers, and more
Moderate resemblance; NATGRID integrates multiple data sources but may require existing identifiers.
Real-Time Data Access
Provides real-time access to consolidated citizen information for authorized entities
Real-time access to a unified identity system for government agencies
Provides real-time, 360-degree profiling for 39 Central and State agencies
High resemblance; NATGRID offers real-time access but focuses more on surveillance and security.
Security and Privacy Measures
Advanced encryption and access control for secure data sharing
Encrypted access to a single unified database with proper authentication
End-to-end encryption for data access, requiring proper authorization
High resemblance; both systems stress encrypted access and authentication.
Surveillance Capabilities
Allows authorized agencies to monitor, analyze, and act on suspicious behavior
Provides access to all necessary information while monitoring for suspicious activities
Enables profiling and surveillance using data analytics, OSINT, and AI tools for authorized agencies
High resemblance; NATGRID’s scope aligns with YUP's vision of monitoring and acting on suspicious activities.
Open Source Intelligence (OSINT)
Integrates OSINT tools for comprehensive profiling
Integration of online information sources like social media to provide intelligence
Uses OSINT tools and web-based applications (like Facebook, Twitter) for intelligence gathering
High resemblance; NATGRID’s use of OSINT matches YUP’s approach to social media intelligence.
Data Analytics and AI
Employs AI for profiling and predictive analytics
Uses AI-driven analytics for real-time reporting and predictive modeling
Utilizes AI for face and speech recognition and profiling, integrating social media data
High resemblance; NATGRID’s analytics approach matches YUP’s AI-driven insights.
User Accessibility
Accessible only to authorized personnel through secure channels
Secure access by authorized government entities with layered authentication
Access through an encrypted portal requiring authorization
High resemblance; both emphasize secure access for authorized users only.
Scalability and Future Expansion
Designed for expansion and addition of new data sources and technologies
Framework allows integration of new data types and technological advancements
NATGRID Phase 2 focuses on expanding integration with telecom companies and the Election Commission
High resemblance; NATGRID’s phased approach aligns with YUP's adaptable and scalable framework.
Summary
NATGRID shares several core features with Hemen's YUP concept, particularly in its centralization of citizen data, real-time access capabilities, use of AI and OSINT tools, and security measures.
The key difference remains that NATGRID is not yet a fully unified identity system like YUP (SUIIC) that replaces all identifiers with a virtual card.
However, its current scope and development phases indicate a strong alignment with the YUP vision.
