IndiaAI Impact Summit — Expert Panel

New Delhi

Joined the expert panel at the official Pre-Summit Event, "Securing Autonomous AI: From Laboratory Agents to Production Systems," for the IndiaAI Impact Summit 2026, hosted by IIT Delhi and COHUMAIN LABS. The session titled "Building India's AI Safety Framework" contributed to discussions on the security and alignment of agentic systems as they transition from research into production environments.

The event served as a critical platform for discussing the governance, ethics, and technical safeguards necessary to foster a secure and trustworthy AI ecosystem in India. Topics included the role of regulatory sandboxes, independent auditing mechanisms, incident reporting frameworks, and international cooperation on AI safety standards.

Building a robust AI safety framework is not merely a technical challenge but a collaborative effort across academia, industry, and policy. The pre-summit dialogue reinforced that AI governance must be proactive rather than reactive, requiring investment in governance infrastructure, technical standards, and human capacity.
