Central task force on AI recommends setting up of N-AIM
A central task force on Artificial Intelligence (AI) has suggested creating a National Artificial Intelligence Mission (N-AIM) that will serve as a nodal agency for coordinating AI related activities in the country. The report of the task force, set up by the Union Commerce Ministry in August last, has also said "AI should be seen as a scalable problem solver in India rather than only as a booster of economic growth." Professor V Kamakoti, Chairman of the task force and a Professor of IIT, Madras, said the report was a "practical" one and that "all our recommendations have been very pointed and it has been seen to it that they are very much implementable in a short time." According to the report, Artificial Intelligence "is the science and engineering of making intelligent machines, especially intelligent computer programmes." The task force, whose members include those from government and the private sector, besides the academia, has identified 10 domains in India, including Manufacturing, FinTech, Agriculture/Food Processing and Education for implementation of AI.
