AI will help India become a developed nation: Piyush Goyal

Addressing the third edition of Global Artificial Intelligence Summit and Awards, the minister said artificial intelligence will truly be a catalyst in India's development journey. "The Make in India programme when juxtaposed with AI technology will enable India to become the factory of the world, providing both equipment and technology." Goyal added that the huge talent pool available in the country will help in exploring newer ways to take AI in every sector of economic activity. "The Department of Science and Technology have done wonderful work in supporting the efforts of the scientific community of the country over the years, especially during the challenges of Covid." He said the government was using AI to redefine the way it works.
