India’s Seven-Pillar AI Governance Guidelines Under the India AI Mission
The government does not intend to regulate Artificial Intelligence (AI), but has issued guidelines for its operation. These guidelines will have seven pillars, the most important of which is trust. Humans will have ultimate control over AI systems, and they should be used for human benefit. AI should be used for the development of all, not for a limited group.
Although the government does not mean to regulate AI, guidelines in regard to its operation are provided in view of both its positive and negative consequences.
The guidelines were released on Wednesday under the India AI Mission at an event chaired by the Secretary of Electronics and Information Technology. The guidelines will have seven pillars, with the most important being trust.
The government recognizes that benefits from AI can be made available to people on a large scale only through trust in the entire value chain of AI. The second pillar is related primarily to humans. The government believes that ultimate control over AI systems will rest with humans, and AI is to be used for the benefit of humans. Therefore, human well-being must be prioritized over anything else. The third pillar is related to innovation.
