Über diesen Titel

“Instead of arguing about Tier-1 or Tier-2, the real question is whether AI will actually benefit 1.44 crore people.” In this episode of Mint Techcetra, we begin with IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw pushing back against the IMF’s ‘second-tier AI’ label for India, and ask whether this whole idea of ranking countries into AI tiers is even useful anymore. From Stanford’s AI rankings to India’s growing ecosystem of foundational models, local language datasets, voice AI, chips, and data centre infrastructure, we discuss why India is often called an applications hub and whether that makes it any less of an AI innovator. Is the world judging India by the right parameters, or is the tier debate just a distraction from what’s actually being built? The conversation then moves from national ambition to workplace reality, as we unpack findings from the Randstad Workmonitor 2026. Why do employees believe AI is boosting productivity and shareholder value but not necessarily their own outcomes? Why are many workers turning to AI for advice instead of their managers, even while claiming they have strong manager relationships? From the growing “AI reality gap” to questions around trust, reskilling, and execution, this episode connects India’s AI with what it means on the ground and whether this transition is really inclusive, or just efficient.
