The focus on agriculture is crucial. If AI can help our farmers with better weather predictions and market prices, it will directly impact rural economy. Hope the summit doesn't just remain a talk shop for elites.

While the vision is good, we must be cautious. "Human-centric progress" sounds great, but what about job losses due to automation? The summit must also discuss reskilling our massive workforce. The theme should include "Sarvajana Rojgaraya" (employment for all) too.

Seeing leaders from France, Brazil, Sri Lanka attending is impressive. Bharat Mandapam is becoming a true global venue. Hope the discussions lead to affordable AI solutions for common people, not just big corporations. 🤞
