India has a unique opportunity to demonstrate how technology can reinforce democratic ideals, Lok Sabha Secretary General Utpal Kumar Singh said here on Sunday, making a strong pitch for the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in the functioning of legislative bodies.

Addressing the 61st Conference of Secretaries of Legislative Bodies, Singh said ethical concerns about AI, such as algorithm bias, misinformation and privacy risks, demand robust safeguards.

He stressed the need to ensure that AI systems are accurate, context-aware and inclusive.
