1. OpenAI at the India AI Summit: A Call to "Unlearn"

OpenAI’s Chief Global Affairs Officer, Chris Lehane, took center stage in New Delhi today to discuss India's unique position in the global AI race.

• The Advice: Lehane urged governments to "unlearn" traditional regulatory approaches that slow down innovation, suggesting that India’s massive developer base could make it the world’s "back-end" for AI logic.

• Data Allegations: When asked about claims that OpenAI might be using data from competitors like DeepSeek, Lehane emphasized the importance of international standards and responsible data sourcing, a key theme for the New Delhi summit.

2. A Guinness World Record for AI Responsibility

In a historic moment for digital literacy, Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw announced that the India AI Impact Summit has entered the Guinness World Records.

• The Feat: The summit achieved the highest number of pledges taken by students for the "responsible and ethical use of AI" within a 24-hour period.

• The Goal: This initiative is part of India’s broader "YUVAi" program, which aims to equip the next generation with the tools to build AI that is both innovative and safe.

3. Gartner: 91% of Service Leaders Under AI Pressure

A new survey released by Gartner today highlights a sharp increase in executive urgency regarding AI implementation in 2026.

• The Frontline Shift: Nearly 80% of organizations plan to transition human agents into new, higher-value roles as AI takes over routine customer service tasks.

• Human-AI Synergy: The report emphasizes that the goal is not total replacement, but a redesign where technology handles efficiency while humans provide empathy and judgment for complex issues.

4. Tech Spotlight: The "Sora 2 vs. Seedance 2.0" API War

As the February 24th launch of Seedance 2.0 approaches, developers at the summit are comparing its new API structure against OpenAI’s Sora 2.

• Efficiency Gains: Benchmarks confirmed today show Seedance 2.0 is roughly 30% faster than previous versions, capable of generating 5-second clips in under 60 seconds.

• The Trade-off: While Sora 2 is still the "Gold Standard" for physics simulation (like water and gravity), Seedance 2.0 is winning over commercial creators with its "Identity-Lock" feature, which keeps characters looking exactly the same across multiple shots.

Prompt of the day: The "Agentic Architect"

In honor of today's shift toward Agentic Workflows (and the launch of the India Summit), today’s prompt focuses on creating a high-level system rather than just a simple output.

The Prompt:

"Act as a professional Chief AI Architect. Help me design a Modular Prompt Framework for a customer support system that needs to handle both technical troubleshooting and billing inquiries. Please structure the plan with the following points:

• Technical Module: Provide instructions for an agent to diagnose a slow internet connection by asking three specific diagnostic questions.

• Billing Module: Provide instructions for an agent to explain a mid-month pro-rated charge clearly to a customer.

• Tone Module: Ensure the agent remains empathetic and professional, using phrases like 'I understand how frustrating this can be.'

• Escalation Module: Define exactly when the AI agent should stop and hand the conversation over to a human manager.
