In this episode, our host, Leslie meets the "Godfather of AI," Yann LeCun, to discuss AI's rapid adoption in India and the challenges that lie ahead. LeCun explains that AI is evolving into a common infrastructure, much like how Linux powers the internet, but India still faces significant obstacles. He emphasizes the need for AI to learn from real-world interactions, moving beyond the current limits of large language models. LeCun expresses optimism about AI’s future, predicting human-level intelligence could be achievable soon, provided the right foundational work is done.
Shifting the focus to the geopolitical landscape, the discussion turns to the relationship between India and China. Our hosts Shouvik Das and Leslie D'Monte highlight China’s position as a tech powerhouse, emphasizing that if India wants to strengthen its component manufacturing capabilities, collaboration with China is key. The "China plus one" strategy has its limitations, as much of the tech industry’s IP, designs, and component ecosystems are built around Chinese standards. To truly make a mark in component manufacturing, India will likely need China’s support. Interestingly, China doesn’t seem opposed to closer ties; it views India not only as an important export market but also as a strategic location to sell its services globally, an encouraging start for potential collaboration.
