Premiered Feb 13, 2024
Drumil Joshi, AI & tech strategist, shared insights on the evolving U.S.-India trade and technology partnership during a high-profile bilateral meeting between Prime Minister Modi and President Trump.
“While AI was not the central focus, the strengthening of economic and strategic ties between the U.S. and India lays the groundwork for deeper collaboration in emerging technologies, including AI,” Joshi stated. “Initiatives like the U.S.-India Critical and Emerging Technologies Initiative (iCET) signal a commitment to advancing AI, quantum computing, and semiconductor development.”
Joshi emphasized India’s active role in global AI discussions, particularly through the Paris AI Summit, co-hosted by PM Modi and French President Macron. “India’s digital ambitions align with Silicon Valley’s tech leadership, making it a key player in co-developing next-generation AI models, autonomous systems, and deep-space innovations.”
As both nations deepen their partnership, Joshi sees India evolving from a consumer of AI to a co-creator, setting a precedent for ethical and scalable AI governance.

Premiered Feb 11, 2025
Drumil Joshi, AI & tech strategist, weighed in on the escalating battle between Elon Musk and Sam Altman, emphasizing its potential impact on the AI landscape.
“The impact of this ongoing spat is twofold: acceleration and fragmentation,” stated Joshi. “On one hand, competition drives rapid advancements, leading to better models, more innovation, and increased funding. On the other, it breeds instability—regulatory clashes,
ethical concerns, and an AI ecosystem controlled by a few powerful entities rather than a balanced, globally coordinated effort.”
Joshi warned that if tensions escalate, AI development could turn into a full-fledged geopolitical and corporate arms race. “With the ongoing U.S.-China chip war layered over the AI battle, we may witness rising geo-technological tensions that reshape the industry,” he added.
As the power struggle unfolds, the question remains: will this rivalry fuel AI’s future or fracture its foundation?
