Artificial Intelligence is the flavour of the times. It is not the preserve of technology geeks anymore, and it is impacting all our lives in ways known and unknown. Many of us already use AI models in our jobs and in our homes. The likes of Google Gemini, Chat GPT, and Perplexity have transformed the way we surf for information on the Internet. But AI and its impact on us is much more than this. Will AI eat away jobs, especially in the technology domain, where India employs almost six million professionals? Will AI create new jobs? Where is India in the race to lead AI transformation in the world? Do we have the technology backbone and infrastructure to support AI development in India? What is the government doing to ensure India does not get left behind in the AI race?
The article presents a balanced inquiry into the benefits and risks of AI without taking a definitive stance.
