Tech companies say no to more laws, statutory body to regulate AI

The technology industry has strongly opposed the creation of more laws or a statutory authority to regulate artificial intelligence (AI) in the country. It has argued that “a disjointed and disproportionate” regulatory intervention can “impede the growth of the evolving AI ecosystem in India” and cause avoidable uncertainty.

This comes after the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) released a 138-page report with recommendation on ‘Leveraging Artificial Intelligence and Big Data in Telecommunication Sector’ on Thursday.
