1. Pax Silica: The US and India Secure the Chip Future

In the most significant development of the summit, India has officially signed the Pax Silica Declaration, joining a US-led coalition to secure critical mineral and semiconductor supply chains.

• The Alliance: Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw and US Ambassador Sergio Gor finalized the deal this morning, establishing a "coalition of capabilities" designed to ensure stable access to advanced AI chips.

• Why it Matters: This agreement effectively links India’s semiconductor mission with the American tech ecosystem, shielding the country from global supply chain shocks while respecting intellectual property.

2. The Launch of the American AI Exports Program

The US delegation, led by Michael Kratsios, unveiled a bold "American AI Exports Program" today to compete for global influence.

• The Tech Corps: A new initiative modeled after the Peace Corps will embed American technical talent into partner nations to help deploy AI for public services.

• Sovereign Adoption: The US is positioning its technology stack as the "Gold Standard," offering financing via the World Bank and Treasury to help developing nations adopt American AI over competitor models.

3. Mind Launches Inquiry into Google AI Overviews

In London, the mental health charity Mind has launched a year-long commission into AI and mental health following a major investigation.

• The Allegation: Reports show that Google’s AI Overviews have provided "dangerous" health advice to millions, including inaccurate facts about psychosis and eating disorders.

• The Industry Shift: This move signals a massive push for accountability. Experts are now calling for "Clinical Trial" style testing for any AI product scaled in the healthcare sector to prevent harmful misinformation.

4. Tech Spotlight: The $60 Million Health Eval and BharatGen

While the big players signed treaties, the focus remained on practical application for the common citizen.

• EVAH Initiative: The Gates Foundation and Wellcome announced a $60 million joint investment to evaluate AI health tools in low-income countries, ensuring they deliver real-world benefits.

• Homegrown Momentum: Indian startups at the summit showcased dozens of local models aiming for a "DeepSeek moment"—proving that sovereign, cost-effective AI is the primary goal for 2026.

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. I need to design a Modular Prompt Framework for a health and wellness application that helps users manage their daily habits. Please structure the plan with the following points:

• Nutrition Module: Instructions for the agent to suggest three healthy meal options based on a user's stated dietary preferences (e.g., vegan, gluten-free).

• Activity Module: Instructions for the agent to recommend a 15-minute exercise routine based on the user's available equipment.

• Safety Guardrail Module: A strict set of rules forbidding the agent from providing specific medical diagnoses or medication advice, directing the user to a doctor instead.

• Motivational Tone Module: Instructions for the agent to use a supportive and encouraging voice, avoiding any language that could be perceived as judgmental.

For each point, provide a clear set of tasks the AI must execute to ensure the user receives helpful, safe, and professional guidance."
