The union government has selected eight strategic projects to promote responsible development, deployment and adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in the country.
As part of the “Safe and Trusted AI Pillar” of the IndiaAI Mission, the government received 2,000 proposals in response to its expression of interest (EoI). These projects aim to address the challenges of bias in AI, enhance privacy, and establish frameworks for explainable and trustworthy AI.
“… India is committed to invest in agile mechanisms for developing indigenous governance tools, frameworks, and guidelines that are based on Indian datasets and reflect its unique challenges, opportunities, and datasets. To support this vision, IndiaAI has issued an EoI to promote responsible AI projects across a range of critical themes…,” the electronics and IT ministry said in a statement.
In total, eight projects have been selected across various themes such as machine unlearning, synthetic data generation, AI bias mitigation, ethical AI frameworks, privacy-enhancing tools, explainable AI, AI governance testing, and algorithm auditing tools.
The following are the projects which have been selected:
The projects are part of the , which was approved by the union cabinet earlier this year. The mission focusses on seven areas – computing, foundational models, datasets, applications, skill development, startups, and safe AI.
This comes at a time when the government has been actively pushing for rapid adoption of AI, with an eye on streamlining access to government services and digital public goods.
Additionally, Minister of State (MoS) for Electronics and Information Technology Jitin Prasada recently said that the government has constituted an advisory group to formulate a framework to regulate AI.
Notably, IndiaAI Mission also launched last month under which the winning team will receive an award of up to INR 1 Cr and a “contract” to deploy their solution in government departments for four years.
