True innovation lives where deep technical insight meets ignored, convention-bound assumptions. There's a kind of arbitrage in innovation that's easy to miss because it doesn't look like arbitrage at all. It lives in the gap between what physics allows and what institutions assume is possible. The reason it persists is that exploiting it requires developing genuine expertise in domains where most have neither the background nor the patience.

"India's AI governance adopts a balanced, agile and flexible approach that promotes innovation and safety," Amal Mohanty, AI policy expert and one of the lead authors of the guidelines, told DW. He said India's approach is different to the rules charted by the EU, China and the US. "Unlike the EU's detailed AI Act that imposes strict, rule-based obligations based on risk classification, ours favors self-regulation and voluntary measures," he said. "This allows developers more freedom to innovate while managing AI risks responsibly."
