India's AI future bright despite energy challenges

India's AI future bright despite energy challenges

George Yeo, a former foreign minister of Singapore, spoke at a conference about how India can become a leader in artificial intelligence (AI) despite not having a lot of natural energy.

He said India is investing in solar energy and has many smart people who can help with AI.

On the other hand, Europe is struggling because its energy is very expensive, which might make it harder for them to compete in AI.

China is also doing well in AI because it has a lot of cheap energy and good infrastructure.

Yeo thinks countries like Brazil could also become important in AI because of their resources and people.
