AI sovereignty does not imply digital isolation: Yotta’s Sunil Gupta

Sovereignty in artificial intelligence (AI) does not imply isolation or complete self-reliance, but rather strategic control, Sunil Gupta, MD and CEO of Yotta Data Services, said on Friday.

Speaking at the AI Impact Summit 2026, Gupta stressed that global interdependence in technology is inevitable. “We will always remain interconnected and interdependent across the world.”

He further said that some countries will excel at chips, others at raw materials, data, models, talent, or capital, so “collaboration is essential”.
