India’s AI law to focus on innovation, may skip penalties for violations

The Ministry of Electronics and IT (MeitY) is drafting a new law focused on artificial intelligence (AI), which will notably avoid prescribing penal consequences for violations, recognising the technology’s significant benefits, according to a report by The Indian Express. This legislation will be a standalone law, which will require social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and X to include watermarks and labels on AI-generated content.
