Srinivasa Ramanujan: The Indian Genius Without Whom the Dream of Artificial Intelligence Would Be Incomplete

India remembers one of its greatest intellectual icons today as the nation celebrates the 138th birth anniversary of legendary mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan. Born on December 22, 1887, in Tamil Nadu, Ramanujan’s life was short but his impact on the world of mathematics—and modern technology—has been timeless.

Recognizing his extraordinary contribution, the Government of India declared December 22 as National Mathematics Day in 2012, with the aim of promoting awareness about the importance of mathematics in everyday life and scientific progress.

Looking for a Job in Australia? Know About the ‘Regional Work Visa’ That Can Turn Your Overseas Dream into Reality
