AIM Media House has just unveiled the March 2025 edition of its flagship print magazine, “AI INSIDER V25.03.06,” offering a panoramic view of how artificial intelligence is transforming industries and redefining global business dynamics. This edition covers a wide spectrum of topics—from India’s booming Global Capability Centres (GCCs) to groundbreaking shifts in robotics, filmmaking, and digital policy.
The cover story spotlights India’s GCC revolution with insights from Lalit Ahuja, CEO of ANSR, who explains how these centres—from Tier‑1 hubs in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Mumbai to emerging nano and micro GCCs in Tier‑2 and Tier‑3 cities—are reshaping global business operations. The magazine also features in-depth commentary on state-led initiatives in Karnataka, Telangana, Maharashtra, and Tamil Nadu, along with economic perspectives from GV Joshi (former member of the Karnataka State Planning Board) and Sid Tipnis of Deloitte India. The Union Budget 2025, presented by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, is examined for its bold vision on tech spending and digital inclusion, with additional views from chief economic advisor V Anantha Nageswaran.
In the realm of technology and innovation, the edition does not hold back. It highlights how NVIDIA is pivoting from a semiconductor giant to a leader in robotics. Jensen Huang’s vision for robotics is explored through the launch of the Cosmos platform, as explained by Huang himself, along with commentary from Dylan Patel, founder of Semianalysis, and Jim Fan, NVIDIA’s senior research manager for Embodied AI. Industry heavyweights like Oracle—with Larry Ellison’s transformative journey since 1977—Google DeepMind, and Siemens Technology and Services also find their place in the narrative, emphasizing the global race for advanced AI and digital transformation.
On the creative front, the magazine takes a fresh look at how AI is influencing Indian cinema. Renowned Kannada filmmaker MG Srinivas shares his experience of testing AI in voice cloning for films like “Ghost” and reflects on the challenges of integrating high-tech solutions in low-budget environments. AIM Tech Journalist Vidyashree Srinivas brings out the nuanced debate on whether traditional filmmaking can hold its ground against disruptive AI technologies.
The edition further explores AI’s societal impact, featuring perspectives from Shekar Sivasubramanian, CEO of Wadhwani AI, on the importance of building trust with the diverse “AI for Bharat” – a concept that bridges the urban-rural divide and ensures technology is accessible in local languages. Insights from Nikhil Malhotra of Tech Mahindra, Ankush Sabharwal of CoRover and BharatGPT, and voices from startups like smallest.ai, Gnani.ai (co-founded by Ganesh Gopalan), and Navana.ai (led by Raoul Nanavati) underscore how innovative solutions are addressing real-world challenges through voice-enabled AI and other modalities.
From global giants like Amazon and Oracle to pioneering startups and government initiatives, the March edition of AIM Print encapsulates the vibrant interplay of technology, policy, and innovation that is driving India’s ascent as a global leader in AI and digital transformation.
