US Delegation Heads to India AI Summit Intent on ‘Domination’

(Merve Hickok, Marc Rotenberg – Tech Policy Press) This week, world leaders, civil society organizations, academic experts, and business executives will gather in New Delhi to discuss the future of artificial intelligence. The 2026 India AI Impact Summit has adopted the theme “Shaping AI for Humanity, Inclusive Growth, and Sustainability,” reflecting a growing global consens that AI policy must be aligned with human rights, democratic governance, and long-term social welfare. The United States has chosen a different approach. Following its new AI strategy into a period the White House calls “The Great Divergence,” the US delegation is expected to promote the adoption of the “American stack”: American-designed chips, American-controlled networks, and American-developed models and applications. Rather than emphasizing inclusive growth, shared governance frameworks or international cooperation, the US strategy underscores global “dominance” and technological dependence. – US Delegation Heads to India AI Summit Intent on ‘Domination’ | TechPolicy.Press
