India to sign AI treaty with France and EU nations at Paris summit

India is set to sign a multi-nation treaty at the Paris AI Action Summit, co-chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Emmanuel Macron. The agreement aims to enhance collaboration on AI development and address its impact on climate change. The treaty will align India with European Union nations and others, focusing on resource sharing and ethical AI principles. This marks a shift from India's previous stance, as it was not part of the 'Current AI' initiative involving eight nations. France recently announced a significant investment in AI infrastructure, further strengthening its partnership with India. The summit will also feature leaders from the U.S., China, and Canada, with a joint statement expected to outline key priorities for international AI cooperation.
