Responsible Today
Think of this as an AA meeting, but for people overwhelmed by AI, online scams, and digital chaos. We run workshops and awareness campaigns on everything from data privacy, scams, to digital addiction— because sometimes, you just need a safe space to say,
‘Hi, my name is Hasan, and I once lost 12k in a scam.’ True Story.

Self Driving Cars and Remote Controlled people
The robots aren’t coming; they’re already here. In this workshop, we explore which jobs will survive, which will evolve, and which will become AI’s new playground. Spoiler: Creativity, adaptability, and knowing when to unplug still give humans the edge. We also have to make sure that it doesn't rewire our brains (no tinfoil hats required).
Kalpana Innovation Lab
Kota, Rajasthan - 2022-23
Mentioned - British Council Report - 2025
During COVID, I found myself back home in Rajasthan, like everyone else— scrolling, surviving, and questioning my life choices. Along with cooking Instagram recipes, I started teaching at a local government school. That small volunteer effort snowballed into Kalpana Innovation Lab— a space exclusively for girls from the govt. schools with a library, a makerspace, 3D printing, robotics, and a computer lab.
We had girls from marginalized communities learning alongside theater artists, technologist, scientists, and whoever else wandered in (physically or digitally). It was a safe space where kids could dream bigger, build cooler things, and access the tools they needed to break out of systemic limitations. The lab isn’t active anymore, but its spirit is still out there— somewhere, probably building something cool.

Historical source context — Beware of the Algorithms
The founder of Curiouswala Studio began his career as a security researcher, specializing in building and detecting computer viruses. In 2012, he published a white paper demonstrating a method to bypass all antivirus systems with just 12 lines of code. This led to the development of Syringe, a tool still used by security researchers worldwide in Kali Linux OS, even after 14 years.
In 2014, he uncovered critical vulnerabilities in CCTV networks, revealing how millions of private cameras could be accessed using a simple tool. Through responsible disclosure, these findings helped improve public security. Over the next five years, he collaborated with companies and government institutions to strengthen cybersecurity infrastructure, eventually contributing to the Government of India’s official guidelines for women’s digital safety.
Beyond research, Curiouswala Studio has worked with multiple companies, organizations, and universities, conducting workshops and training programs. From teaching cybersecurity at institutions across the country to mentoring thousands of students, the team has been dedicated to equipping individuals with the skills to navigate and defend against digital threats. This course brings together years of research, ethical hacking, and advocacy to empower participants with essential cybersecurity knowledge.
