The Business Guardian
|August 26, 2023
As more people with little or no skill can execute higher level tasks thanks to artificial intelligence, more employment will be created in India
-
B20 India Chair N Chandrasekaran on Friday, artificial intelligence will increase the number of employment in India by enabling more individuals with little to no talent to undertake higher level tasks.Chandrasekaran, who is also the Chairman of Tata Sons, stated at a panel discussion at the B20 Summit India 2023 that India had achieved a “fantastic breakthrough” in terms of data privacy and protection by adopting a techno-legal strategy.
Seeking to address concerns over privacy and jobs with the advent of artificial intelligence (AI), he said, “Actually in a country like us, it (AI) will create jobs because it will empower people with the little skill or no skill, will empower them with information skill so that they can perform a higher level of jobs.” He cited the example of a nurse and said due to AI “the nurse will be able to take away the workload of a doctor and that’s the way we are going to scale up”.Chandrasekaran, however, stated that the impact of AI will play out in different markets and different segments of the society differently.
