New Delhi19 February. Former British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak gave a powerful address at the India AI Impact Summit, 2026 at the Bharat Mandapam here on Thursday. During this time, his funny style was also seen. During the conversation, Sunak took responsibility for the delay of a few minutes in starting the session and apologized to the audience for the delay in reaching the venue. He also took a dig at the traffic jam of Delhi.

Taunted on Delhi’s traffic jam regarding AI

Rishi Sunak said: ‘Sorry, we’re a few minutes late and it’s entirely my fault. As we saw this week, AI can do many things, but it can’t solve Delhi’s traffic problem yet. His statement also brought out loud laughter. However, his statement can also be seen as sarcasm.

India now reaches one of the top positions as AI superpower in the world

Sunak said that what has been seen this week is a great example of the extraordinary, not only of the leadership of Prime Minister Modi, but also of the energy of all of you to develop and use this technology, which does not exist anywhere else in the world. This is a very special thing.

He said, ‘That is why according to Stanford (which releases world rankings), India has now reached one of the top positions as an AI superpower in the world, which many of you should be proud of. However, it is also a bit disappointing as they left Britain behind to reach this position. However, I just told Prime Minister Modi, if you look at the ICC Test rankings, England are still ahead, which is probably more important.
