Yeah I agree this is a major issue with Indians mostly because knowledge is considered as status. I think if done in a non direct tactful way most Indians will admit they are wrong. (Maybe less so to a foreigner) I think the right way to counter this is using LLMs

I spoke about this with some Indian colleagues I’ve worked with in the US. They said the same thing as you. Supposedly it’s super obvious when someone does not know something and is bluffing to save face. I haven’t learned to recognize this.

I like how that rolls off the tongue, but don't quite understand it. Sounds like a good start for a poem, story, or book.

Is this a quote from somewhere?
