Book Summary
The next great war may not begin with soldiers crossing borders, but with invisible systems failing silently. A power grid goes down. Hospitals lose access to data. Ports stop functioning. Payment networks freeze. Cloud infrastructure is hijacked. Algorithms and bots decide what millions see, believe and fear. In the 21st century, sovereignty will not be tested only at bordersit will be tested in the systems that run our lives. In Power of UncertAInty, cybersecurity expert Anand V. and strategic counsel Srinath Sridharan examine how artificial intelligence, digital infrastructure, data, financial systems and supply chains are reshaping power itself. For India, the challenge is urgent: will it build sovereign technological capability, or remain dependent on systems designed, owned and controlled elsewhere? WHAT THIS BOOK EXPLORES Why digital sovereignty cannot be reduced to data localization or home-grown apps How KYC and financial regulation can become instruments of exclusion, harassment and fraud Why industrial policy, manufacturing capacity and social capital are central to national power How poor banking infrastructure reveals deeper failures in financial and industrial inclusion How digital, financial and industrial supply chains are now deeply interconnected How cybercrime networks can exploit systems such as UPI and identity infrastructure Why AI, LLMs, chips, cloud infrastructure and algorithms are now strategic assets What India must do to preserve freedom, privacy, autonomy and sovereignty in the AI age WHY THIS BOOK MATTERS NOW It treats AI not merely as a technology trend, but as a question of national power. It connects everyday digital experiencesKYC, banking, UPI, identity checksto larger questions of sovereignty. It explains why technological dependence can become geopolitical vulnerability. It challenges simplistic ideas of self-reliance and argues for genuine capability-building. It places privacy, identity and freedom at the centre of Indias digital future. It speaks to policymakers, technologists, entrepreneurs, regulators, business leaders and citizens alike.
