India’s technology<\/a> minister said Wednesday that OpenAI chief Sam Altman was “willing to collaborate” with the world’s most populous country in its bid to develop its own cut-price AI systems.<\/p>\n

Ashwini Vaishnaw said he held a “super cool discussion” with Altman in the capital New Delhi, where they talked about India’s “strategy of creating the entire AI stack” of graphics processing units (GPU), models and app<\/a>s.<\/p>\n

Vaishnaw said Altman was “willing to collaborate with India on all three”, without giving further details.<\/p>\n

Altman said that India was OpenAI’s second biggest market, with its users in the country of 1.4 billion people trip<\/a>ling in the past year.<\/p>\n

“India is an incredibly important market for AI in general<\/a> and for OpenAI in particular,” Altman told a closed-door meeting of Indian tech developers, in comments broadcast by the Press Trust of India news<\/a> agency.<\/p>\n

“I think India should be one of the leaders of the AI revolution,” Altman said.<\/p>\n

“It’s really quite amazing to see what the country has done, in embracing the technology and building the entire stack of things on top of it.”<\/p>\n

OpenAI was the firm that brought generative models to public consciousness in 2022 with the launch of ChatGPT.<\/p>\n

Vaishnaw referenced India’s space mission, which has included landing an unmanned craft on the moon in 2023, matching the achievements of established space powers at a much cheaper price tag.<\/p>\n

“Our country sent a mission to the moon at a fraction of the cost that other countries did,” Vaishnaw said, in a speech alongside Altman.<\/p>\n

“Why can’t we do a (AI) model that will be a fraction of the cost?”<\/p>\n

Altman told Vaishnaw that he was “really excited to do a lot more together”.<\/p>\n

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is to co-host an artificial intelligence summit in France from February 10-11, which Altman is expected to attend.<\/p>\n

Altman is on a whirlwind tour of Asia, and signed a deal in South Korea on Tuesday with tech giant Kakao.<\/p>\n

The US firm is seeking new alliances after the release of Chinese rival DeepSeek last month shook the global AI industry.<\/p>\n
