AI पर अमेरिका की ‘दादागिरी’! दुनिया के लिए बंद किए टॉप मॉडल्स, भारत पर क्या असर? – us ai monopoly anthropic ban global access india impact ttecm
America’s monopoly in AI space…or rather bullying is going on! There is currently a discussion around the world whether the Artificial Intelligence kill switch is in the hands of America? If this is so then it is no less than an alarm bell for the whole world including India.
Actually, the US Trump government wants that American companies should not give advanced AI tools to other countries. Recently the Trump government anthropic Two powerful AI models have been blocked for other countries. This means that even if the people of India want to use Anthropic’s powerful model by paying money, they will not. Only that model will be available which America feels will not harm them.
Nvidia is currently the world’s largest chipset company and has left Apple behind. Since it is also an American company, Nvidia does not give its best AI chipset (GPU) to any other country. This has also been done by the American government.
From Open AI to Anthropic, the world’s biggest AI companies are American. America uses AI models made by these companies in war. Recently, Open AI and Anthropic models have been used during the attack on Iran.
world fast artifical Intelligence Is moving towards. The country which is ahead in AI will be considered powerful in the future. The incidents that have come to light in recent times have further intensified this debate.
The US government ordered AI company Anthropic to close its most advanced models, such as Fable 5 and Mythos 5, to foreign users. This clearly means that Technology The whole world could have used it, but now limits are being imposed on it.
America is now looking at AI not just as a technology but as a strategic weapon. And when a country starts using technology as a weapon, then alarm bells ring for the rest of the world.
In fact, the game of AI has now become a game of data, models and access. Only those who have data can train the model. And only those who have models can give direction to the world.
America has a kill switch
America is at the forefront in this entire ecosystem. Big companies like OpenAI, Google, Anthropic are from there. Their models are being used all over the world.
But what is happening now can spoil the balance of this system. If America decides who will use AI and who will not, then it will become a kind of digital control. Many experts are calling this ‘AI monopoly’.
Europe has come forward openly on this. This issue remained prominent in the G7 summit also. European countries are saying that one country’s control over AI is not right. If this happens, the balance of technology will be disturbed. That’s why the talk of ‘Sovereign AI’ is rising rapidly.
Sovereign AI means that every country should create its own AI technology, control it itself and not depend on others. But this is easier said than done. Because creating AI requires huge infrastructure, data and research. And America has the most of these three things right now.
This is where India’s story becomes interesting and a little worrying. India has today become the largest digital market in the world. Crores of users are using AI tools every day. From chatbots to search, video, social media, AI is everywhere. But who owns these tools? In most cases the answer is America.
India is a testing ground for American AI companies
At present, India is a user of Artificial Intelligence, but not the owner. And this is the biggest danger. India has become like a testing lab or playground for AI companies of China and other countries including America. Since India has more people and diversity, India is the number-1 spot for companies to train AI models. Compared to other countries, there is a lot of lack of awareness among Indian users. This is the reason why people here openly give their data to any company. On the contrary, users of America or European countries are boycotting Artificial Intelligence.
There is opposition to the construction of data centers in America and protests against AI are taking place on the streets. Recently, when Google founder was speaking on AI in a college, the students protested and created a ruckus. But at present there is a lot of enthusiasm about data centers in India.
Many companies including Google and Microsoft are now preparing to open large-scale data centers in India. This will bring investment and development in the country, but at what cost? The amount of electricity and water consumed in data centers is enough to power many states.
There is a lot of data in India. The user base is very large. This is the reason why American companies test, train and improve their models here. But when it comes to control, India lags behind.
Now American companies are not only considering India as a testing ground, but data centers are also being set up. Because there is opposition to setting up AI data centers in countries like America. Yes, one thing is that if there are more data centers in India and the government is strict about data localization then at least the data will remain in India which is a good thing.
India dependent on AI tools, America benefits
This new ban on Anthropic models is a big sign. Today they have discontinued some models, tomorrow they may do more. If this happens, what option will countries like India have? Either they depend on it, or create their own system.
There is another danger here, which often gets ignored. If control of AI remains with a few countries, then it can control not only technology but also thinking. AI can decide which information will be visible, which will not, what kind of language will be promoted. This can have a direct impact on democracy, society and economy.
This is the reason why the issue of ‘trusted partners’ also came up in the G7. This means that only some countries will be given access to advanced AI. The question is who will be included in it and who will be left out. If this system is implemented, it will become a kind of digital club in which not every country will have entry.
This is both an opportunity and a challenge for India. The opportunity is because India has talent, data and market. If work is done in the right direction, India can create its own AI. But the challenge is that if there is a delay in this, India will always remain dependent on others.
The government has definitely taken some steps in this direction. Initiatives like ‘India AI Mission’ are being taken. But this is just the beginning. The real work is yet to be done. Today’s truth is that AI is not just technology but power. The country which has AI will decide the future. And if this power remains limited to a few countries, then inequality in the world will increase further.
India and other countries will now have to understand that just being a user will not suffice. If steps are not taken in time, then in the future the same thing will happen in the world of AI as happened earlier with oil and internet, some countries are ahead, others are behind.
