TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ India needs to work on the artificial intelligence mechanism “extremely carefully” and it must be ready to face a legal, ethical, political, and economic upheaval that may follow due to this technology, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said on Monday.
“We have to use Artificial Intelligence (AI) for humanity’s progress and peace. It should not be the case that a country or a group of countries establish their dominance on this technology — just like nuclear power — and the remaining countries are not able to enjoy the fruits of this technology,” he mentioned.
Mr Singh was speaking after inaugurating an event titled ‘AIDef (Artificial Intelligence in Defence)’ here. He noted that AI’s ethics and dangers must be properly thought out. “We cannot stop the progress of artificial intelligence and we should not try to stop its progress. But we need to be careful about it,” he mentioned. When a new technology brings a huge change, its transition period is also as huge and serious, he said.
