N – National Sovereignty: Data belongs to its rightful owner. A – Accessible and Inclusive: AI must not be a monopoly, but a multiplier. V – Valid and Legitimate: AI must be lawful and verifiable.

Vision will serve as a vital link for humanity’s welfare in the AI-driven 21st century. AI Should Be Beneficial for All, Says PM Modi Addressing the gathering in New Delhi, PM Modi described artificial intelligence as a historic transformation comparable to the shift from wireless communication to real-time global connectivity. He noted that AI represents a significant turning point in human history and emphasised that its impact is only just beginning. According to him, AI has the potential to elevate humanity to new heights. "AI will be beneficial for all only when it is shared by all, when code is open for all," he said. The Prime Minister highlighted that AI is not just about making machines smarter but about amplifying human capabilities. "There is only one difference: this time, the speed is unprecedented, and the scale is also unexpected. Earlier, the impact of technology used to take decades to be visible. Today, the journey from machine learning to learning machines is faster, deeper and wider than ever," he added. He stressed the need for a broad and forward-looking vision, stating that the global community must shoulder equal responsibility. "Along with the present generation, we also have to worry about what form of AI we will hand over to the coming generations," he said. According to PM Modi, the key question is not what AI will achieve in the future, but how humans utilise AI in the present. He called for skilling, reskilling and lifelong learning to become a mass movement. "The future of work will be inclusive, trusted, and human-centric. If we move forward together, artificial intelligence will elevate the potential of humanity," he added. Call to Democratise AI Let us resolve to develop AI as a global common good. pic.twitter.com/kvGls5vkVB — Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) February 19, 2026 The Prime Minister described AI as a transformative force that can become disruptive if directionless but a powerful solution when guided correctly. "How to make AI from machine-centric to human-centric, how to make it sensitive and responsive, this is the basic objective of this Global AI Impact Summit. The theme of this summit clearly reflects the perspective from which India views AI. Welfare of all, the happiness of all. This is our benchmark," PM Modi stated. He emphasised that AI must be democratised and should not reduce individuals to mere data points or raw material. Instead, AI should serve as a tool for inclusion and empowerment, especially for countries in the Global South. "We must give AI an open sky and also keep the command in our hands, like GPS. GPS shows us the way, but the final call on which direction we should go is ours. The direction in which we take AI today will determine our future," he added. PM Modi urged world leaders to commit to developing AI as a “global common good” and highlighted the urgent need for global standards. Referring to challenges such as deepfakes and fabricated digital content, he proposed authenticity labels for online content to distinguish real material from AI-generated creations. "As AI creates more text, images, and video, the industry increasingly needs watermarking and clear-source standards. Therefore, it's crucial that this trust is built into the technology from the start," he stated. Unfortunately, AI deepfakes and fabricated content are destabilizing open societies. Watermarking and clear source standards are increasingly necessary. We must also be more vigilant about child safety. pic.twitter.com/9bw2QMGx6F — Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) February 19, 2026 He concluded by saying that the world is entering an era where “humans and intelligent systems co-create, co-work, and co-evolve”.
