00:00The meeting was about artificial intelligence.
00:02Mistral is an artificial intelligence company from France
00:05and we've been exporting sovereign solutions across the world.
00:09We have discussed various things.
00:11The first is how important it was for every country,
00:15for the European Union, for India,
00:17to actually own and control the stack of artificial intelligence.
00:20So from the energy supply all the way to the creation of what we call tokens
00:24and the distribution of this technology to the people.
00:31So that has been a critical part of our discussion
00:34and we've sensed a strong alignment on making sure that every country
00:38actually benefits from the growth that AI is actually going to bring to everyone.
00:42And when I say benefit from the growth,
00:44it means having a big part of the value chain,
00:47reinvesting the value creation into R&D,
00:49and that's something that we would love to do more together.
00:52And how was the meeting with the Prime Minister of India?
00:57It's been impressive.
00:58It's the first time that we actually have a bilateral meeting,
01:01although we've met multiple times at the IMPACT Summit
01:04and also at the G7 yesterday.
01:07I was impressed by the understanding of the Prime Minister
01:11and his leadership on artificial intelligence.
01:14I was also impressed by the fact that there's actually very strong alignment
01:18into what he says and what we've been saying for the last three years.
01:22AI is too important to technology not to be controlled by sovereign states,
01:27not to be controlled by sovereign companies.
01:29And the way to provide control is through partnerships or IPs transferred
01:35and where the business continuity of the deployment is maintained,
01:41is ensured through localization of infrastructure
01:44and through deployment of the software stack that is controlled by the states or companies.

03:43so that artificial intelligence are virtual
03:45and that certain organizations that create a higher greater impact
03:48and that棒2021.
