At the India AI Summit 2026, Nandan Nilekani and Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw emphasized that AI can deliver population-scale impact only when built on open, interoperable Digital Public Infrastructure like the Unified Payments Interface. Nilekani highlighted AI agents that remove complexity and enable inclusive access, while Mazumdar-Shaw outlined a health “stack” using secure data and AI-driven risk profiling to advance preventive, community-based care and long-term medical innovation.
