India is making strides in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI). As a founding member of the Global Partnership on Artificial Intelligence (GPAI), India has been an early adopter of AI and has shown distinct and significant receptivity to the technology. With the recent announcement that India will take over the chair of the prestigious GPAI in 2023, the country is now all set to become a global leader in AI.
The GPAI was launched in June 2019 by France and Canada, and is an international organization dedicated to advancing the responsible and human-centric development and use of AI. India joined the organization in October 2019 and has since been actively involved in the development of the GPAI’s initiatives and activities.
India’s commitment to AI is evident in its National AI Strategy, which was released in 2018. The strategy aims to develop a robust AI ecosystem in the country, and includes initiatives such as the National AI Portal, the National AI Innovation Hub, and the National AI Research and Development Program.
In addition, the government has also taken steps to ensure that the country is well-equipped to capitalize on the opportunities presented by AI. This includes the establishment of the National AI Mission, which will focus on developing the infrastructure and talent needed to foster AI innovation.
The government has also taken steps to promote the use of AI in various sectors, such as healthcare, agriculture, and education. For example, the government has launched the AI for All initiative, which aims to promote the use of AI in various sectors.
The government has also taken steps to ensure that the use of AI is ethical and responsible. This includes the establishment of the National AI Ethics Framework, which outlines the principles and guidelines for the responsible use of AI.
India’s commitment to AI is further demonstrated by its recent decision to take over the chair of the GPAI in 2023. This will give India a platform to showcase its AI capabilities and to promote the responsible use of AI.
India’s commitment to AI is an indication of its ambition to become a global leader in the field. With the right initiatives and policies in place, India is well-positioned to capitalize on the opportunities presented by AI and to become a global leader in the field.
