Good Governance: Modi Govt to use Artificial Intelligence, update laws to protect citizen’s privacy

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government will leverage latest tools and insights drawn from Artificial Intelligence to improve the quality of governance for more than 1.34 billion Indian citizens. The government will also update the legal and regulatory framework to better protect the privacy and ownership of citizen’s data, said commerce minister Suresh Prabhu.

Addressing a conference on AI in New Delhi on Monday, Suresh Prabhu said that India was transporting more data than the cumulative data transported by both US and China. Without naming any company, the minister said the top six companies were using this massive amount of data for value addition and monetisation.

“AI is the technology of today and the one who masters it will rule the world,” said Suresh Prabhu, adding that every country is developing an AI strategy and India too is working on developing a strategy for the use of AI for the common good.
