At the recent AI Action Summit in Paris, India and France underscored the importance of democratised access to Artificial Intelligence (AI) resources. During a roundtable session held at the prestigious Sciences Po (Institut d'études politiques de Paris) campus, key leaders from both countries discussed the need for equitable access to AI, along with capacity building and the development of techno-legal frameworks to ensure responsible AI governance. The session, led by Ajay Kumar Sood, Principal Scientific Advisor to the Indian Government, brought to the forefront the potential for collaboration between India and France in shaping AI policy and technological initiatives that benefit both nations and the global community.

The roundtable focused on fostering responsible AI development, highlighting the need to balance technological advancements with ethical considerations. Discussions also revolved around ensuring that AI benefits are shared equitably across societies, particularly in developing nations. The summit emphasized the role of international collaboration in driving innovation and ensuring AI is deployed in a manner that serves the greater good.

A significant part of the conversation revolved around the development of sovereign AI models that align with national interests while contributing to global advancements. There was also a keen focus on the creation of globally accepted terminologies and standards for AI, ensuring that AI systems are developed ethically and in line with universal principles. The roundtable participants stressed the importance of ethical AI deployment, particularly in how AI models are trained, ensuring they are fair, transparent, and free from bias.

The session also delved into the collaboration between India and France in multilingual large language models (LLMs), which are vital for the global inclusion of AI. Both nations are working towards building federated AI compute infrastructure that allows for secure and efficient AI processing across borders, ensuring that AI resources can be shared without compromising security. This initiative will further facilitate access to AI research, datasets, and high-performance computing, which are essential to drive innovation and ensure AI’s growth remains sustainable.

Sustainable AI practices were also discussed, with a focus on the energy-efficient computing needed to address the environmental impact of AI systems. The summit highlighted how cross-border cooperation can play a pivotal role in advancing AI research, supporting the growth of AI startups, and ensuring that emerging technologies can be scaled effectively to address global challenges. Furthermore, discussions included the societal impact of AI, particularly in how AI interacts with human rights, privacy, and labor markets.

As the world moves towards more advanced AI systems, the need for data governance and international safety frameworks becomes increasingly important. The role of international institutions in shaping these frameworks was also explored during the session, emphasizing the need for multilateral agreements to guide the responsible development of AI.
