Just speculating, but positions in AI are usually filled by people with PhD's and this knowledge is so scarce in the job market, not low level IT pros who are competing in a race to the bottom

What keeps other countries like India from developing PhD's like that? It seems like they would have a strong incentive to do so.

Well in a sense they already do, but mostly at US universities.

I would imagine the quality of their university systems. I get the feeling that most top quality professors would not like to work for a university system run by the Indian government.
