News<\/strong>– The article explains the issue of building sovereign AI capablities by India<\/p>\n

What is the petential of AI?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

AI and deep learning are increasingly used in recent years across various applications, like e-commerce recommendations and self-driving cars. <\/strong><\/p>\n

The emergence of Generative AI<\/strong>, including models like ChatGPT, DALL-E from OpenAI, Bard from Google has ushered in a new era.<\/p>\n

Generative AI models can generate fresh content from unstructured data, provide coherent responses to natural language queries,and propose solutions and ideas.<\/strong><\/p>\n

These solutions have potential to transform fields <\/strong>ranging from drug discovery to the creation of video and audio content. This technology is likely to have a more profound impact on the global economy and society.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What are challenges for India in ddevloping it own capablities in AI?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Numerous Indian companies, like Tata Consultancy Services and Infosys have embraced Generative AI<\/strong>. But, none of them have developed their own foundational AI models<\/strong> .<\/p>\n

Indian technology firms and even the Indian government have primarily concentrated on the applications of AI. <\/strong>However, focusing exclusively on applications would be a mistake.<\/p>\n

Establishing AI capabilities like Generative AI models<\/strong>, will pose a significant challenge for India due to its late entry into this domain.<\/p>\n

In the United States, both university research institutes and technology giants<\/strong> like OpenAI, Google have invested substantial resources in cutting-edge AI research. <\/strong><\/p>\n

In China, companies like Baidu and SenseTime, along with numerous startups, have created their own Generative AI models. <\/strong><\/p>\n

In European countries, many firms and research institutions in France, Germany, and other European nations are developing their own transformer and other AI models<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Even in South Korea, internet giant Naver is entering the AI research arena.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What should be done?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

India should also invest in the capacity to create indigenous foundational AI models. <\/strong>Furthermore, India needs to commence research into the next frontier of AI,<\/strong> known as General AI.<\/strong><\/p>\n

India must formulate a clear plan <\/strong>and execute it effectively.<\/strong> One option is for the Indian government to take the lead and establish a national AI computing center. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Another approach, is similar to the original charter of OpenAI.<\/strong> It involves collaboration <\/strong>between influential Indian IT firms to fund an AI research institute. <\/strong><\/p>\n

This cooperative model<\/strong> would require setting aside market rivalries<\/strong> to focus on the long-term common good. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Iit is imperative for the government to formulate policies<\/strong> that can attract the most brilliant Indian minds currently engaged in AI research in the United States or Europe back to India.<\/p>\n

China’s AI research program<\/strong> has incentivized highly talented Chinese engineers and AI researchers who in US or European universities to work in China.<\/p>\n

The Indian government must formulate startegy<\/strong> to attract the best Indian AI talent to return from Silicon Valley and US universities.<\/p>\n

The government should consider enacting new legislation<\/strong> related to copyright and data usage, granting primary rights over non-personal data <\/strong>generated within the country to Indian entities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
