Artificial intelligence has been catalyzing the field of technology and furthering the development of human possibility. AI is expected to add $967 billion to India’s economy by 2035 and $45-500 billion to India’s GDP by 2025, or 10% of the country’s $5 trillion GDP target. Artificial intelligence is a dynamic enabler for the development of India’s technology ecosystem and a force multiplier for achieving the goal of a $1 trillion digital economy by 2025.
“India’s presidency also demonstrates how the world today views India as a trusted technology partner and has been an advocate for the ethical use of technology to transform the lives of its citizens,” said a statement from the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology.
GPAI is a first-of-its-kind initiative to leverage the experience and diversity of participating countries to better understand the challenges and opportunities of artificial intelligence, and the alliance will bridge the gap between theory and practice by supporting advanced research and applied activities and AI-related priorities.
The GPAI is made up of 25 member countries including the US, UK, EU, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, South Korea and Singapore. India joined the group as a founding member in 2020.
