Mint primer | Stargate Wars: Where is India in AI Infra Race?

Donald Trump has announced a $ 500 billion enterprise called Stargate (Name Science-Fi) for the construction of the AI-centric data center and other infrastructure in the US. Its purpose is to lead in AI, generate 100,000 jobs and beat China. Mint Investigation of implications for India:
What is Project Stargate?
Contents
It is a joint venture of $ 500 billion with OpenAI, Oracle, SoftBank and MGX to build an AI -centric infrastructure including data centers across the US over the next four years – Trump’s first major commercial initiative after returning to office. The objective of this project is to compete with China’s AI progress, emphasize the role of geopolitics in technical policies and strategies. The new company will initially pay $ 100 billion. Softbank will fund the enterprise, while openAI will oversee operations. Major partners include Arm, Microsoft, Nvidia and Oracle. Construction work is going on in Texas, review of additional sites is underway.

Who is ahead in America vs China AI race?
The US leads the global AI ecosystem by excelling in research, machine learning models, private investment and employment generation. However, while China -based Baidu cannot match the chatgpt of Bot Openai, according to Stanford University Rankings, China is second in AI. China attracted $ 67.2 billion to AI -related investment in 2023, while the US invested $ 7.8 billion, and AI is far ahead in patent and notable machine learning models (61 vs. 15). China is also innovating rapidly with AI Lab Dipcch’s R1 Open-SOS Reasoning Model, which is competing with OO1 of OpenAI at the performance and low cost.
Any other thinking behind Stargate?
The world’s largest AI firm is dependent on the Taiwan Semicondia Manufacturing Company for Nvidia Chips. China sees Taiwan as a separate province. Governments are giving priority to AI-Taiyar data centers, estimating generative AI for 40% of Advanced-AI assignment. Cloud provider leads this demand by underlining the important role of infrastructure in AI.
What are other people doing about AI Infra?
The UK AI is followed by India and the United Arab Emirates with a plan for expansion of important data center for attracting AI companies. India is strengthening its AI infrastructure, including Rackbank’s 80mw AI-concentrated data center in Madhya Pradesh. There are about 150 data centers in India, including AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud and its Indiaai mission. The budget of 10,372 crore focuses on increasing the computing infrastructure, supporting deep-tech startups and promoting AI development.
What else does India need to do?
India will build AI infrastructure using 10,000 GPUs (Graphics Processing Unit) through public-private participation, but will have to address sanctions on US AI chip exports. Ajay Chaudhary, the founder of HCL and president of the EPIC Foundation and National Quantum Mission of India, says Stargate reflects the “serious intentions” of America to control AI and to own all major language models (LLM). Stargate dubbing “handicap of technology”, he believes that India should control its data and create their own “AI theory”.
