About Global Technology Summit 2023
Founded in 2016, Carnegie India, based in New Delhi, is part of a robust global network that includes over 150 scholars in Asia, Beirut, Brussels, Berlin, and Washington. The centre focuses on three interrelated programs: technology and society, political economy, and security studies. Led by Indian experts with decades of international and domestic policy experience, Carnegie India engages with governments, policymakers, academics, students, industries, practitioners, and civil society to provide an insightful and fresh analysis of India’s pressing challenges and the rising role of India in the world.
About Geopolitics of Technology
During this year’s GTS, we will emphasize the momentum surrounding digital public infrastructure (DPIs) and discuss their design choices and adoption strategies. We will also deliberate on the economic case for DPIs. Additionally, we will delve into the use cases of artificial intelligence (AI), considering the evolving regulatory landscape and issues such as skilling and innovation, and the military applications of AI.
Agenda
The Global Technology Summit brings together industry experts, policymakers, scientists, and other stakeholders from all over the world to deliberate on the changing nature of technology and geopolitics.

- The transition of AI to more advanced generative AI models is accelerating its transformative potential. However, there are questions about how different regulatory mechanisms will respond to the growing adoption of such AI systems.
- While the technology at the core of generative AI will remain uniform across jurisdictions, the approaches to regulating it may vary considerably.
- Can governments, the private sector, and civil society come together to steer the development of generative AI in a responsible manner, without blunting its transformative power?
- This panel will accordingly explore avenues of global convergences on AI.
- Is a shared understanding of global governance structures for AI possible?
