AI should be human centric and inclusive: IT Secretary

Read the full articleAI should be human centric and inclusive: IT Secretary on YourStory

What Happened

Union IT Secretary S Krishnan is of the view that there should be democratic access to AI resources.

Fordel's Take

The IT Secretary's point is the real headache: democratic access. If we don't govern AI properly now, we're just enshrining existing biases into the next generation of infrastructure. We can't let this become an unregulated black box where access is determined purely by corporate ownership.

We need ironclad rules about data access and model transparency. If AI systems aren't built with human oversight baked in from the start, they'll just automate inequality faster than we can legislate against it. It's about control, period.

Actionable: Establish mandatory, transparent governance frameworks for all publicly accessible AI resource access.
