US-based artificial intelligence (AI) firm, OpenAI, will host its first-ever developer gathering in India next month, in Bengaluru. Speaking at a session in the Global Partnership on AI (GPAI) Summit here on Tuesday, Anna Makanju, vice president of global affairs at OpenAI, said this gathering will mark the beginning of OpenAI’s involvement in the India market.

"We will hold a developer gathering with our vice-president of engineering, Srinivas Narayanan in Bangalore, in January—with more to follow. Our plan is to convene developers in India to work with OpenAI product leaders on some of the most difficult products and safety challenges," Makanju said.

Adding how such developer gatherings will fall in line with cross-border regulatory discussions, Makanju said, "Collaborations between Silicon Valley and Indian developers will help address some of the most important issues in AI. If you navigate the stress safely and responsibly, AI systems can create unparalleled economic abundance for the global economy, and take on challenges like global health and security."
