Per-item analysis
India
India is the world's #6 economy by GDP ($3,956bn) and ranks #8/50 on absolute Cognitive Power and #37/50 on per-capita intensity. Its standout strength is Augmentation Index (68.2, Leading); its trajectory is Maintaining — holding position but not compounding an advantage. The binding concern is cognitive development index.
Strengths
- Augmentation Index (68.2, Leading) — AI is actively in use across the workforce, so capability is being turned into value.
- Cognitive Velocity (3.8%, Strong) — improving quickly relative to a moving frontier.
- Cognitive Power Index (55.2, Strong) — great-power scale: the country can shape the frontier, attract capital and talent, and set standards others follow.
Risk factors
- Dependency / low resilience — CRI 31.8 (#40/50): dependency risk: heavy reliance on frontier infrastructure others control — a strategic vulnerability.
- Relative trajectory — Maintaining: Risk: the frontier keeps moving, so standing still means slow relative decline. A stable base, but it needs fresh momentum to avoid drifting back.
- Scale without depth — strong absolute power (CPI #8) but thinner per-capita intensity (CC #37): capacity is large in total but spread thin per person, often a large-population effect.
- Binding weakness — Cognitive Development Index 0.323 (#41/50, Developing): imbalance or underdevelopment — at least one dimension is a binding weakness.
