Introduction
The advent of the digital revolution in India has given rise to the era of connectivity with exponential technology at its core. With Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems the conventional means of doing business is undergoing a paradigm shift.
This presents opportunities and challenges to hitherto established notions about education, jobs, intelligence and interfacing with machines. With AI’s transformative abilities along with the government’s growing interest around AI applications in India there is huge potential in advancing the state of the art in AI.
