New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to appear on a three-hour-long podcast with US-based podcaster and AI researcher Lex Fridman, which will be released on Sunday evening.
A day before its release, PM Modi described the conversation as “fascinating” in a post on X (formerly Twitter), highlighting the variety of topics they discussed. Fridman, on the other hand, called it “one of the most powerful conversations” he has ever had.

Tech Titans: Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Sam Altman
