Show Notes

In this thought-provoking episode of The Coffeehouse Experience, we’re joined by Arindam Goswami, a policy researcher at the Takshashila Institution, where he focuses on technology policy, AI governance, and national security. Alongside hosts Sanjay and Souvik, Arindam unpacks India’s position in the fast-evolving global AI ecosystem.

The discussion explores India’s progress in building critical AI infrastructure—from GPU clusters and data centers to cloud access—and whether government strategies like the National AI Mission are translating into real impact. Are current policies enough to spur innovation while managing AI’s societal risks? How can India balance democratic values with the need for scale and speed in AI?

We also dive into the geopolitical dimensions of AI: Can India leverage its neutrality to attract investment amid U.S.-China tensions? Is a uniquely Indian model of AI, rooted in frugal innovation and inclusion, emerging on the world stage?

Don’t miss this deep dive into one of the most critical conversations of our time.
