PM Modi to inaugurate Kushinagar airport today
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will unveil the Kushinagar International Airport on Wednesday at the site of Lord Buddha’s Parinirvana in Uttar Pradesh. This move aims to promote the tourism industry of the Buddhist Tour based on the three hallmarks of economic development-trade, tourism and technology. It is expected that today’s inauguration will be attended by ambassadors from at least 10-15 Buddhist practice and promotion countries. More than 100 Sri Lankan priests and 8 high priests led by Sri Lankan Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa’s son Namal will also attend.
The construction cost of Kushinagar Airport is estimated at ₹260 crore; it will serve the areas near Uttar Pradesh and Bihar and is seen as an important step in promoting investment and employment opportunities in the region. According to a statement issued by the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO), the airport will facilitate domestic and foreign pilgrims to visit the Buddha’s “Mahaparinirvana” and strive to connect Buddhist pilgrimage sites around the world.
The project office stated that Modi will go to the Mahaparinirvana Nirvana Temple in Kushinagar to participate in the Abhidhamma Day activities, and then go to participate in public events and the subsequent airport inauguration ceremony. In the temple, the prime minister will worship the lying Buddha statue and plant saplings of Bodhi. Later, Prime Minister Modi will lay the foundation for several other development projects, including the Rajkiya Medical College, which cost more than ₹280 crore, and 12 other development projects worth more than ₹180 crore.
The city of Kushinagar is connected to other Buddhist sites by trains designed for Indians and foreigners interested in pilgrimage or religious tourism. The Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh will attend this event and is expected to speak with the Prime Minister at a gathering in the region.

OpenAI buys new domain chat.com for over $15 million, it redirects to ChatGPT
The previous owner of the domain turned out to be Dharmesh Shah, founder and CTO of software company HubSpot
OpenAI has bought the domain chat.com. Clicking on it automatically routes you to the ChatGPT website.
The AI giant’s CEO Sam Altman announced this on Thursday, November 7, 2024, by simply posting the URL on X (Formerly Twitter) without any description or reasoning.
Altman’s post has already gotten over 3 million views and nearly 15k likes. The domain purchase is likely part of a rebranding effort.
The domain’s previous owner turned out to be Dharmesh Shah, founder and CTO of software company HubSpot. Shah announced this in posts on X and LinkedIn.
In his post, he detailed how he had purchased the domain for $15.5 million earlier this year and sold it later to an undisclosed (at that time) buyer.
“Well, in an 8 character tweet (talk about brevity), Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI revealed that they were the buyer,” he wrote. ”If you visit the website now, it goes to ChatGPT.” Shah wrote he was not at liberty at that time to share who the acquirer was as he was “going to leave that to them, when they were ready.”
He then went on to share GPT o1 prompt which reasoned the entire episode. “When he does sell a domain, it’s almost never at a loss,” and “Dharmesh doesn’t like profiting off of people he considers friends,” the prompt read, which could mean he did sell it for more than the $15.5 million he bought it for, since it also says he doesn’t like referring to himself in the third person.
However, its also indicated he got compensated in OpenAI shares since the prompt reads that he “always wanted to own OpenAI shares,” that “he doesn’t need the cash from a domain sale,” and that “he made a non-humble brag earlier this year that he’s now an investor in OpenAI.”
