India's efforts to build its own AI playbook and its ambition to make a major impact in artificial intelligence caught the attention of Michael Dell, chairman and CEO of Dell Technologies. The billionaire CEO behind one of the world's largest IT companies and a leading PC vendor believes that India's strong economy, availability of technical talent and leading push in the AI space will help India says it has become an attractive market for companies like .
“India has the talent and is a great resource for Dell and many other companies, but there is also a desire for sovereign AI,” he said at a roundtable at the Dell Technologies World event that kicked off in Las Vegas on Monday.
On the world stage, New Delhi is touting its leadership in the field of artificial intelligence, with the goal of not only competing with generative AI models created by big tech, but also aiming to build its own AI ecosystem. I am. However, this requires training AI talent, developing and deploying unique large-scale language models, and building an AI computer infrastructure from scratch. However, building a highly scalable AI computing infrastructure using the latest generation GPUs may not be cheap. The Union Cabinet's recent approval of the national-level India Artificial Intelligence Mission with a budgetary outlay of Rs 10,371.92 crore opens the door to build AI computing infrastructure and strengthen the local AI ecosystem through public-private partnerships.

India, along with countries like Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and the United Arab Emirates, are participating in a global race to shape the future of AI technology. Interest in AI has been on the rise since his November 2022 release of ChatGPT, a large-scale language model developed by Microsoft-backed startup OpenAI, which became a big hit. With fierce competition from Silicon Valley majors and AI nationalism at an all-time high, Indian startups are now developing their own models.
At the Las Vegas event, Dell announced major advances in the implementation of artificial intelligence across a variety of sectors and highlighted how this technology can benefit businesses. The company announced AI Factory, which works with NVIDIA to accelerate enterprise AI integration. As Dell and his NVIDIA describe it, the AI Factory is an intelligent collection of components needed to quickly and easily deploy AI solutions.
“We are moving from computation to cognition and into the age of AI. It took years to bring electricity to buildings, but we can now automate tasks by building machines that plug into walls. That's the situation we're in when it comes to AI,'' Dell said to a packed room full of partners.
