Can India Lead the Global AI Race?
The question of whether India can lead the global artificial intelligence race is no longer speculative—it is structural. History shows that technological leadership does not emerge merely from invention, but from the ability to combine talent, capital, policy, and scale into a self-reinforcing system. AI today sits at a similar…
