Prime Minister Narendra Modi Calls for Responsible Use of AI
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said that Artificial Intelligence must remain under human direction and not the other way around. He stressed that technology should serve society and contribute to national development, rather than dominate human decision-making.
Addressing a gathering on technology and innovation, the Prime Minister underlined that India is actively embracing emerging technologies and positioning itself at the forefront of digital transformation.
AI’s Role in Human Development
Modi said Artificial Intelligence will play a crucial role in accelerating human progress. He noted that AI can support sectors such as governance, healthcare, education, and industry when used responsibly and ethically.
He pointed out that India’s growing digital infrastructure and skilled workforce are enabling the country to adapt quickly to advanced technologies. The emphasis, he said, must remain on ensuring that AI strengthens human capabilities rather than replacing them.
India has, in recent years, expanded its focus on AI research, innovation, and policy frameworks. The discussion around ethical AI and human oversight has gained prominence at multiple national forums, including the recent deliberations covered in the report on India hosting the AI Impact Summit at Bharat Mandapam in Delhi.
Balancing Innovation and Accountability
The Prime Minister’s remarks come at a time when governments across the world are debating regulatory mechanisms for AI systems. He reiterated that technological growth must be aligned with human values and national priorities.
India’s approach, he indicated, is focused on innovation with accountability. As the country scales up its digital economy, AI is expected to be integrated into public services and private enterprises with structured oversight.
The remarks signal a continued push for technology-driven development while keeping human control at the center of policy thinking.
