DRDO DG at AI Summit: Cannot depend on Google Gemini, ChatGPT and other foreign-developed AI models for military apps

Director General of Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) Chandrika Kaushik made it clear at the ongoing AI Impact Summit that the country India cannot afford to rely on AI models built by foreign companies for military applications. Speaking at the AI summit to news agency ANI, Kaushik lamented the fact that there are not enough popular made-in-India AI models. Kaushik underscored the urgent need for indigenous artificial intelligence (AI) solutions in the defence sector. Speaking to ANI, Kaushik said, “In the defence domain, we can’t afford to depend on solutions and AI models which are coming from abroad. We need to be very sure about the trustworthiness of the models and the systems which we are adopting.”
