We are now being recognised as a nation capable of building, deploying and governing AI at a scale very few countries can match. The country ranked second in terms of talent in the recent Global AI Vibrancy Rankings published by Stanford University. Several Indian firms are now developing health diagnostic models, crop advisory systems, AI tutors and governance platforms that can handle millions of users. Since AI brings both opportunities and risks, global regulatory frameworks must evolve to support innovation while also addressing concerns over misuse, bias, and safety. As India strengthens its domestic AI ecosystem, it will have greater influence in global discussions on AI standards, safety norms and ethical frameworks.
