Modi asks Niti Ayog to train ministries on Artificial Intelligence (AI)

As the country is heading towards artificial intelligence (AI) based manufacturing and businesses, PM Modi wants all his ministers to learn AI. He has asked Niti Aayog to familiarise all ministries with the high-end technology and explain how it can be leveraged to address the country’s socio-economic problems.


These ministries will be required to set up dedicated artificial intelligence cells and eventually they will all be integrated to help scale up the performance of all social indicators.

Niti Ayog is likely to periodically review the progress made on AI across ministries. Niti Aayog has already initiated pilot projects on adoption of AI across health, education and agriculture. By May end, it will formulate a national strategy on AI, outlining the scope of research, adoption and commercialisation of the technology. A dedicated taskforce will oversee the rollout of AI and its implementation.
