Learning AI: The Way to Flourish in the Future

Since Klaus Schwab drew attention to the arrival of the 4th Industrial Revolution in January 2016, we are witnessing the significant impact of Artificial Intelligence and its more well known subset, often seen as its synonym of Machine Learning that led Andrew Ng to propound " AI is the new electricity". India created the IITs in the 1960s that helped some Indians to achieve places of eminence in the technical and business world of the 3rd Industrial Age. Today, India is a ' KRANTI' nation poised to play center-stage in the AI age leveraging the opportunity as a ' learning movement' amongst its masses, evidenced by the rapid adoption of the mobile phone. A group of former IIT faculty and students led by Prof. M.M. Pant have started a movement of AI awareness and lifelong learning to spread knowledge about AI as per one's need. Their Mission 2020 is to prepare not only the young but all ages for their future in the 4th Industrial Age.
