Gaps galore in AI ambitions, reveals House panel

NEW DELHI: India’s artificial intelligence ambitions are rapidly moving from policy vision to measurable economic promise. But a new report by the standing committee on communications and IT makes it clear that the journey from intent to impact remains uneven.

The report, tabled this week, projects that AI could have contributed as much as $500 billion to India’s GDP by 2025, rising sharply to $967 billion by 2035. That would account for nearly a tenth of the country’s $5 trillion economy target. Alongside this, AI is expected to generate nearly 47 lakh new technology jobs by 2027.
