New Delhi, November 27, 2025:
Artificial Intelligence is being sold as the defining revolution of this era, promising smarter cities, automated workplaces and unprecedented productivity. From chatbots to self-driving systems, AI dominates headlines and investment flows. However, beneath the glamour of algorithms and data models lies a vast, often ignored backbone — electricity grids, data centres, semiconductor supply chains, network cables and skilled human labour that keep the digital world running.
Experts warn that without strengthening these forgotten foundations, the AI dream risks hitting serious bottlenecks. Power shortages, chip supply disruptions, weak digital infrastructure and cybersecurity gaps can stall even the most advanced AI ambitions. As nations race to lead the AI future, the real challenge is not just innovation at the top, but resilience at the base — where physical infrastructure, policy stability and workforce readiness determine whether the AI boom will truly sustain long-term growth.
