India offers world's cheapest AI compute: Jayant Chaudhary

Speaking at AI Impact Summit, Minister of State for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship Jayant Chaudhary said India offers AI compute at ₹65 per hour, among the lowest globally. "This is…lower than what individuals might pay for everyday services such as a cinema ticket," he said. "AI can help us leapfrog problems," he said, stressing that technology must remain human-centric.
