One year since I joined Adalat AI. I have already written about the work itself — the courtrooms, the languages, the gap between benchmarks and real benches. This post is not about that. This is about what happened to life around the job. Off the Clock I came in carrying a particular kind of guilt — the kind that early career researchers accumulate quietly over years. The feeling of always being one paper short, one grant proposal behind, perpetually under-delivering against some invisible standard. https://kavyamanohar.com/post/adalat-work/ Wed, 29 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000sakhi.kavya@gmail.com (Kavya Manohar) https://kavyamanohar.com/post/adalat-work/ I haven’t posted much about my job at Adalat AI. The team I’m part of builds dictation systems for the Indian court rooms, and initially, I thought it would be a straightforward extension of my PhD research. I was wrong. Unlike academic work where success means beating SOTA on benchmark datasets, the reality at Adalat AI demanded something more: a deep understanding of India’s diverse courtroom dynamics, legal workflows, and the intricate linguistic landscape where regional languages and English constantly intertwine.
