 Summary of this article
- Microsoft India CEO Puneet Chandok predicts India is becoming an “AI-first nation,” driven by digital colleagues, AI factories, and an outcome-based economy that replaces today’s inefficiency-driven models.
- He argues intelligence will become abundant and accessible—“like plugging into a wall for 50 IQ points”—while urging continuous learning as the key to human relevance.
- With Satya Nadella announcing Microsoft’s $17.5B AI investment in India, Chandok says the country is uniquely positioned to lead the global AI revolution.
If someone told you a decade ago that you could “plug yourself into a wall and gain 50 IQ points,” you would probably smile politely and wonder which science fiction story this is stolen from. But when MicrosoftIndia & South Asia President Puneet Chandok says it on stage in New Delhi, confidently and emphatically and repeats it not once but thrice, it suddenly sounds less like fantasy and more like a trailer for the world ahead. He even jokes, ‘someone like him’ could really use those 50 IQ points.
This wasn’t just any stage either. The comment came during the Microsoft Leadership Summit, an event headlined by Satya Nadella, Microsoft’s Chairman and CEO. Nadella delivered the keynote, unveiling Microsoft’s evolving Copilot vision, its refreshed AI strategy, and a massive $17.5 billion investment aimed at supercharging India’s AI and cloud infrastructure.
Coming back to Chandok, he claims, “we are entering a new reality,” one ‘where Intelligence will move from a scarce commodity to something abundant and readily available’. His message felt part warning, part celebration and part gentle shove, urging everyone to keep moving forward. India, he insists, is not simply joining the AI revolution. “India is becoming an AI-first nation… India is doing it like nobody else.”
