The summit will see participation from key global leaders, including US Vice President JD Vance and Chinese Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang, alongside government officials, industry CEOs, and AI experts.
"This summit will allow for an international conversation on AI. There will be Prime Minister Modi, who will move up to a major visit in our country, as we want to forge a dialogue with all powers on AI," said Macron, while addressing the 30th Conference of Ambassadors.
