Could Bill Gates and political tussles overshadow AI safety debate in Delhi?

The AI Impact Summit in India this week brings together tech leaders, politicians, and scientists to discuss how to guide AI development globally, but the event risks being overshadowed by political tensions and competing interests between Western powers and the Global South. India faces significant challenges in AI adoption, including that major AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Claude don't support most of India's languages, and AI data workers there earn less than £4,000 per year while Western AI companies are valued in the hundreds of billions, creating inequality in how AI benefits are distributed worldwide.
