French President Emmanuel Macron has announced that India will host the next international artificial intelligence (AI) summit. Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed India's readiness to host the event.
India's Role in International AI Summits
India has actively participated in international working groups on governance, the future of work, security, and AI for public interest. At the previous summit in Paris, co-chaired by France and India, topics included inclusivity and sustainability.
Factors in AI Development and Integration
During the summit, directions for AI development were presented, including its effects on healthcare, education, and agriculture. India emphasizes the importance of inclusivity, especially for Global South countries, striving to involve more of them in the AI governance framework.
Challenges and Opportunities with AI
Despite tremendous opportunities associated with AI, consideration of possible biases and risks is crucial. Prime Minister Modi highlighted the need for a governance system based on trust and collective efforts to establish standards. The challenge of job loss due to AI implementation was also discussed, as well as the necessity for workforce reskilling.
India strives to harness AI for the public good and is ready to share its experience in fostering sustainable technological development. The summit will serve as a crucial platform to discuss an inclusive and secure AI future.
