"The true potential of Artificial Intelligence lies not merely in building frontier AI models, but in commoditising AI as a Digital Public Infrastructure that is affordable, accessible and inclusive." Discuss.

Tips for your answer

  • The highest-scoring insight is comparing AI with India's DPI model - India's strength lies in democratising AI rather than merely building frontier models.
  • Remember examples such as IndiaAI Mission, AIKosh, IndiaAI Compute Portal, BHASHINI, BharatGen, Sarvam AI, Aadhaar, UPI and ONDC.
  • Avoid focusing only on AI innovation. Balance accessibility, sovereign AI, governance, affordability, ethics and digital inclusion for a holistic answer.
