As New Delhi brings together industry giants from across the world to the one of the biggest gatherings on Artificial intelligence, the US- India Strategic Partnership Forum (USISPF) has arrived with the largest US delegation. President & Chief Executive Officer, Mukesh Aghi underlined the critical importance of India to American companies from AI perspective and as a leader in leveraging tech to provide digital infrastructure with citizens, not only just from a payment perspective.
In an interview, Mukesh Aghi, said, “From a strategic partnership perspective between US and India, this event is very important because when you look at some of the leaders in AI in the US are Indian Americans, and to be able to bring in 100 plus global leaders from US into India, that sends a very strong message that India is very critical to US companies and also from an AI perspective”.
He added, “India has taken a very strong lead in trying to make AI more affordable, scalable, and accessible to its citizens. And it has one of the largest structured database to leverage that. So in every aspect, India is going to play a very pivotal role in AI on a global basis.”
When asked about the lessons other emerging economies can learn, Mukesh Aghi said, “I think the message to the rest of the world, especially the global South, is look at how India has been able to provide digital infrastructure with citizens, not only just from a payment perspective, but also leveraging AI in the future.”
From February 16 to 20, the Impact Summit, the first international AI summit hosted in the Global South, showcases New Delhi’s ambition: to shape an AI future that is inclusive, responsible, and impactful. At the core is India’s audacious vision for sovereign AI.
