The AI Impact Summit 2026 has catapulted India into the forefront of international AI discourse, according to Aam Aadmi Party’s Raghav Chadha. In his keynote address here on Monday, the MP outlined how the platform is molding worldwide perspectives on AI oversight, advancement, and people-centric uses.
Chadha framed AI as a cornerstone of strategy, where compute-heavy nations will eclipse others. Digital backbone and raw processing muscle will crown the winners, he predicted.
Spotlighting monopolies—design oligopolies, production clusters, and trade curbs—Chadha conceded India’s current shortcomings. However, the nation’s talent reservoir positions it uniquely, drawing global AI talent hunts to Indian shores.
Insufficient without enablers, this human edge requires high-caliber compute, varied supply lines, and ironclad infra, he hammered home. Historically, commodities defined power; now, AI and chip fabrication will, mirroring oil’s past reign.
Chadha’s call to arms urged swift measures to embed India in this paradigm. The summit stands as a beacon, galvanizing the nation toward AI leadership and enduring global relevance.
