Sedikit cerita pagi tadi...

Di sela pertemuan, Presiden Prabowo memberikan oleh-oleh diplomasi berupa satu set angklung kepada PM Narendra Modi. Angklung, alat musik tradisional khas Jawa Barat, menjadi simbol persahabatan sekaligus kekayaan budaya Indonesia..

Momen lucu sekaligus hangat terjadi saat PM Modi dan Bapak Presiden langsung mencoba memainkannya. Ternyata, boleh juga ya skill PM Modi main angklung! 😄

Hayo, ada yang bisa tebak lagu apa yang dimainkan?

India AI Stack: Powering Intelligence at Scale

Turning Data and Compute into Real-World Impact

The future of technology in India is guided by a simple but powerful idea: the democratisation of #AI. Artificial Intelligence should not remain limited to a few companies, institutions, or countries. Instead, it must be developed and used in a way that benefits every citizen, supports public welfare and collective well-being.

This vision of AI for Humanity places people at the centre of technological progress, ensuring that innovation serves society rather than the other way around. Realising this vision requires AI to function reliably at scale and integrate seamlessly into everyday life across healthcare, education, agriculture, finance, and public services.

It is a matter of immense joy that the 20th Session of UNESCO’s Committee on Intangible Cultural Heritage has commenced in India. This forum has brought together delegates from over 150 nations with a vision to protect and popularise our shared living traditions. India is glad to host this gathering, and that too at the Red Fort. It also reflects our commitment to harnessing the power of culture to connect societies and generations.
