New Delhi: India has under 2% of the world’s $1 trillion worth of compute infrastructure, which is several times less than countries like the US and China which together have nearly 60%, a top Nvidia executive said on Monday. At the same time, there is an opportunity for India to become the ‘AI (artificial intelligence) factory of the world’ as more and more infrastructure becomes available in the country. “If we can basically build the infrastructure in accelerated computing quickly and faster, research will happen, innovation will happen, and more importantly, you will add $1 trillion to the economy,” said Vishal Dhupar, managing director for South Asia at global processing unit (GPU) making giant Nvidia.
Dhupar highlighted that India contributes only about 2% of the world’s AI research, and that the paucity of compute infrastructure is the key determinant.
“There’s a direct correlation to that,” Dhupar said.
