AI has potential to address global challenges, improve lives: Ashwini Vaishnaw

Artificial intelligence has the potential to address global issues and improve lives across the world, but also presents challenges, Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said on Tuesday. The minister termed Global Partnership on Artificial Intelligence (GPAI) Summit as a significant moment for international collaboration on this new technology.

AI also presents challenges as it is not amenable to geographical boundaries, Vaishnaw, who is Minister for IT and Electronics, said at GPAI Summit 2023.

"Disruptive technologies like AI (artificial intelligence) raise question on how should society respond to such development," he said.


India is committed to democratisaiton of technology and use of technology for inclusive growth, he added.
