🧬 Integrated Synthesis

The $2 billion investment in India's AI push is a symptom of a larger systemic issue: the prioritization of economic growth over social and environmental well-being. To create a more sustainable AI future, we must address the digital divide, ensure inclusive data governance, and prioritize human-centered development. This requires a multidisciplinary approach that integrates scientific, artistic, and indigenous perspectives.
