In this article, We have explored the Sentiments of People in India during Demonetization. Even by using small data, I could still gain a lot of valuable insights. I have used Spark SQL and Inbuild graphs provided by Databricks. India is the second-most populous country in the world, with over 1.271 billion people, more than a sixth of the world's population. Let us find out the views of different people on the demonetization by analyzing the tweets from Twitter.

Moreover, terms like Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning came into the fray, and are all set to become the new normal. It's been a whirlwind of a year for Indian e-commerce! So, I decided to sum up the performance of the Indian e-commerce industry in 2017. The cash-crunch caused by demonetization forced a surge in cashless methods like mobile wallets, debit/credit cards and net banking. According to Business Insider, wallet payments forerunner PayTm witnessed transactions worth 120 crore per day only 12 days post demonetization.

According to Google-Boston Consulting Group (BCG) study, Indian digital payments industry will grow to $500 billion by 2020, contributing to 15% of GDP. Digital transactions have seen a dramatic increase in India in the past year due to push from both government and the private sectors. In India, post demonetization, it was time for India to go on a cashless ride where more emphasis was laid on Paytm, Payment Bank Arrival, Telecomm Disruption through Jio, Make in India and Digital India Initiatives. Last month Paytm raised $1.4 billion from Softbank and apps like Whatsapp are exploring the unified payment inter surface (UPI) to launch its payment solution in India. Another digital payment brand, MobiKwik has grown its user base from 35 million to 55 million since November 2016 and has over 1.5 million merchants on its platform. India recently lost the tag of'fastest growing economy' as its gross domestic product (gdp) slumped to its lowest in more than two years in the March quarter.

First, let's say that humanity does succeed in pushing down cost of production to near zero, and can sustain with basic income. The question still remains: what do people DO with their infinite leisure? What percentage of people can be creative? How many will focus on doing something artistic? How many will become scientists or investigative journalists?
