The AI Impact Summit 2026 in New Delhi concluded with 88 nations and international organizations endorsing a landmark declaration calling for secure, trustworthy, and democratized AI, though critics note it lacks binding commitments.

Politico reports that South Korea leads the world in AI optimism, with only 16% of citizens concerned about AI versus 50% in the US, driven by demographic pressures and a tech-first culture.

Over 70 nations signed the Delhi Declaration at India's AI Impact Summit, with PM Modi hosting Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, and Demis Hassabis.
