Macron Urges France, India to Collaborate on Global AI Governance
Speaking at an AI summit in New Delhi, he noted that the rapid growth of AI has further concentrated power among major technology companies.
“AI has become a major field of strategic competition, and big tech got even bigger,” he said, adding that advances in AI, graphics processing units and semiconductor technologies are directly influencing geopolitical and macroeconomic balances “sometimes for the best, sometimes for the worst.”
He emphasized that no single power bloc is destined to dominate the technological landscape.
“Hegemony from any quarter is not a fatality,” he said. “There is a path for innovation, independence and strategic autonomy. And this path, I’m convinced, is one that countries like France and India must take together.”
The French leader said Paris and New Delhi share a vision of “sovereign AI,” describing it as technology developed and governed in ways that protect the planet while promoting inclusive economic growth.
He stressed the importance of effective multilateralism, rules-based governance, and partnerships grounded in shared values such as science, the rule of law, and global balance.
“Now is the time to channel our forces toward what works,” he said, urging concrete measures to make AI more sustainable, efficient, and accessible, along with targeted funding, safeguards against misuse, and international cooperation to build safer and more responsible AI systems.
