So there's this AI music-making platform, called Suno, which I talked about before.
But looking at the name, I was thinking "wait, are the founders South Asian?"
For the uninitiated: in many South Asian languages, a word homonymous to "suno" literally means "listen", in the imperative mood.
So I had to look it up, and Google lead me to this small thread on Hacker News, which confirms that Suno's name is derived from a South Asian word.
