The event, the fourth edition of the Governance Summit, focused on inclusive artificial intelligence under the Viksit Bharat vision and convened stakeholders from government, industry, academia and civil society to discuss actionable pathways.
The opening keynote by S. Krishnan, Secretary, Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, set out the government’s commitment to build an AI ecosystem that serves every citizen, including those at the margins of the digital economy and framed artificial intelligence as a transformative opportunity to enhance productivity, improve governance and expand access across health, education, manufacturing and financial inclusion.
Prof. Ashwini Chhatre, Associate Professor and Executive Director of the Bharti Institute, emphasised the need to translate AI ambitions into governance frameworks that are practical and enduring, identifying inequality, the scope for leapfrogging and the future of work as key dimensions and urging that access to AI opportunities should remain equitable with appropriate safeguards, social security mechanisms and affirmative action.
The day-long programme featured four thematic panel discussions on AI’s role in digital commerce, online safety for women and children, healthcare access and affordability, and job creation with digital entrepreneurship, and a parallel roundtable examined the operationalisation of AI for last-mile public service delivery from state governments down to gram panchayats.
