Congratulations to the Indian Prime Minister @narendramodi who has become Independent India's longest serving elected leader, surpassing Nehru's tenure! This period has brought unprecedented economic growth, propelling India's GDP and creating an environment where entrepreneurs and business can both thrive. The US-India partnership has expanded and is strategically important for both countries. I wish you success in the future to keep the focus on all these endeavors.

I enjoyed the conversation with @PennyPritzker, @AndrewEdgeclif1, and the @Semafor team for The CEO Signal. We talked leadership, long‑term bets, and how meaningful progress comes from tackling the biggest challenges head‑on. Thank you for the thoughtful exchange and the perspective.

🟡 Most CEOs have not woken up to the fact that technology is as important as their balance sheet, @IBM Chairman and CEO @ArvindKrishna says in the latest episode of The CEO Signal. The first technologist to lead the company in its 115-year history unpacks how he approaches high-stakes decision-making in moments of rapid technological change — including the initially controversial acquisition of Red Hat that he thinks landed him his current role. Krishna makes the case for why CEOs need to place bold bets, even when the payoff won’t be quick. And he cautions his fellow CEOs not to wait to start working what quantum computing will mean for their companies. “You’d better start thinking about it now,” he says.

#AI is projected to enhance human productivity and unlock an astounding $16T in value by 2030. But, as with any other powerful technology, AI has the potential for both misuse and risk. At @IBM, we believe smart regulation should be based on 3 core tenets: bit.ly/46g7tRm
