Nandan Nilekani calls for AI-generated question papers, nationwide computer-based testing

Infosys co-founder Nandan Nilekani on Tuesday called for a big shift in India’s framework for conducting examinations and proposed the use of artificial intelligence to create question papers on the day of the test in a bid to remove the risk around fraud and leaks.

“Question papers create an economic incentive for them to be sold. So, the way to solve this is to really have a massive bank of questions, and only at the last minute generate the question paper for that day, and therefore the question of ‘a’ question paper goes away, and there’s no economic incentive for that.
