New Delhi, March 16: Speaking opening from his heart, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said that no matter what the world does with artificial intelligence (AI), it will remain incomplete without India. In a three-hour marathon conversation with American AI researcher and podcaster Lex Fridman, the Prime Minister said he is making "this statement very responsibly". "One thing I슬롯사이트™m about to say might sound strong, and it may even upset some people, but since you슬롯사이트™ve asked, I슬롯사이트™ll speak openly from my heart. No matter what the world does with AI, it will remain incomplete without India. I슬롯사이트™m making this statement very responsibly," said the PM.

"Tell me, you슬롯사이트™ve heard my speech at the AI Summit in Paris on global cooperation. What do you think? Can anyone develop AI entirely on their own? What is your perspective on this?" he asked the host. PM Modi stressed that AI development is fundamentally a collaboration. "Everyone involved supports one another through shared experiences and learning. India isn슬롯사이트™t just developing theoretical AI models. It is actively working on and bringing to life AI-driven applications for very specific use cases to ensure that GPU access is available to every section of society," the Prime Minister informed.

India has already created a unique marketplace-based AI model to ensure its broad accessibility. A significant mindset shift is taking place in India, though historical influences, traditional government procedures or the lack of strong support infrastructure made us appear as lagging others. The government has just launched several key initiatives under the IndiaAI Mission, marking a major milestone in India슬롯사이트™s journey towards developing responsible and ethical technology.

The initiatives include AIKosha: IndiaAI Datasets Platform, the AI Compute Portal, the AI Competency Framework for Public Sector Officials, iGOT-AI Mission Karmayogi, the IndiaAI Startups Global Acceleration Program with Station F, the IndiaAI Application Development Initiative and IndiaAI FutureSkills all aimed at strengthening AI-driven research, innovation and skill development. The AI Compute Portal will initially provide access to 10,000 GPUs, with 8,693 more to be added, offering AI compute services at a highly subsidised rate to support startups, researchers, and enterprises.

PM Modi also discussed the 5G roll-out at the Fridman show. "The world initially believed we were far behind, but once we started, we became the fastest nation globally to roll out comprehensive 5G networks. Recently, an American company executive visited me and shared his experiences about this very fact. He told me that if I were to advertise in the US for engineers, I would only receive enough applicants to fill a single room at best. But if I do the same in India, even a football field wouldn슬롯사이트™t be enough to hold them,슬롯사이트� said PM Modi.

This indicates that India has access to an extraordinarily vast pool of talent, and "that슬롯사이트™s our greatest strength". "After all, artificial intelligence is fundamentally powered, shaped, and guided by human intelligence. Without genuine human intelligence, AI can슬롯사이트™t thrive or progress sustainably, and that real intelligence exists abundantly in India슬롯사이트™s youth and talent pool, and I believe that슬롯사이트™s our greatest asset," PM Modi told Fridman.
