Google and Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai said India is a global model for making AI accessible to more people. He spoke at a press conference in New Delhi before the India AI Impact Summit. Pichai said India’s digital systems and language diversity create a strong base for AI growth. He said the country is set for an “extraordinary trajectory” in AI. Google announced new India-focused steps. These include subsea cable links, AI tools for 10,000 schools, and support for 2 crore public servants. A new AI certificate course will be offered in English and Hindi. “AI must work across languages and local contexts,” he said.
