AI without data is meaningless: Rahul Gandhi speaks for data localisation in Parliament

New Delhi [India], February 3 (ANI): India lacks data that can be fed to an AI system, Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi said on Monday in Parliament asserting that data fuelled the emerging Artificial Intelligence technology.

The Congress MP from Rai Bareilly was participating in the Motion of Thanks on the President’s Address in the Lower House during the ongoing Budget Session.

“People talk about AI, but it’s important to understand that AI on its own is absolutely meaningless, because AI operates on top of data,” the Congress leader said.
