Govt Hints at Self-Regulatory Approach In Response to MPs Question on AI regulation

The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) has indicated a self-regulatory approach for AI guidelines, with NASSCOM leading the initiative. This response came during a Rajya Sabha session where questions were raised about the government's development of voluntary AI regulations. The government aims to foster a supportive environment for organizations to adopt good practices voluntarily.

NASSCOM recently launched The Developers Playbook for Responsible AI in India, which outlines sector-agnostic guidelines for AI development. However, concerns have been raised regarding the playbook's lack of specificity for different industries and its voluntary nature, which may hinder adoption among smaller enterprises. The government emphasizes innovation over heavy regulation, aiming to address harmful AI applications rather than the technology itself.

• NASSCOM launched guidelines for responsible AI development in India.

• Government aims for a self-regulatory approach to AI regulation.
