    Can India Win the AI Race Without Its Own OpenAI?

    AI is becoming a new measure of global power, built on chips and the infrastructure that powers them. But while India has the talent and the data, it still lacks many of the critical building blocks to be a leader on frontier AI. In the first episode of Emerging, a monthly podcast series, host Menaka Doshi examines India’s AI trilemma: Can the world’s most populous country achieve AI sovereignty without controlling the technology’s most advanced layers? She’s joined by Srikanth Velamakanni, co-founder of Fractal Analytics, India’s first publicly listed pure-play AI company, and Ganesh Ramakrishnan, a professor at the Indian Institute of Technology-Bombay, to explore how India hopes to turn its talent, scale and innovation into a competitive edge.
