Thinking seriously about AI safety, from Ahmedabad.

1. 1

   India will matter to how AI goes,

   through its engineers, companies, and policy — but almost none of the serious safety conversation happens here, and almost none of the field's talent pipeline runs through cities like ours.

2. 2

   We build common knowledge first.

   Regular discussions, debates and reading groups give a cross-section of the city's builders, investors and policy people a real grounding in the arguments — not headlines, the actual arguments.

3. 3

   Then we route people toward contribution.

   Bootcamps, fellowships, and introductions to the global field — research programs, governance work, safety-relevant engineering — for those who want to go deeper.

4. 4

   Over time, Ahmedabad develops its own bench:

   people doing safety research, founders who take the problem seriously, and informed voices in India's AI policy conversation.

We hold this loosely — if a better path shows up, we'll take it.
