AI sovereignty crucial for cybersecurity, says Gaganyaan astronaut

Gaganyaan astronaut and IAF pilot Prasanth Balakrishnan Nair on Saturday said AI sovereignty is crucial for ensuring national cybersecurity, as the growing use of artificial intelligence is making it increasingly difficult to distinguish between real and fake content. Speaking at the Kerala Cyber Suraksha Summit 2026, organised by Kerala Startup Mission and F9 Infotech, Nair said cybersecurity would have limited value unless the country developed ownership and control over AI technologies. It is very important that we have AI sovereignty, and any amount of cybersecurity will be of no avail unless we own AI, he said. Nair said future wars and industries would involve a whole-of-nation approach, making it increasingly difficult to distinguish between physical and digital boundaries. In the whole-of-nation approach, it's very difficult to say where the physical boundaries end and where the digital boundaries start. And it's going to affect all of us, he said. He stressed the ne
