The government will release a consultation paper on artificial intelligence regulation within a month, Ashwini Vaishnaw said, outlining a framework focused on safety, skilling and social harms. The World Bank’s AI report also flagged the need for developing economies to adapt the technology to local needs.

India is expected to publish a consultation paper on artificial intelligence (AI) regulation within a month, Union Minister for Electronics and Information Technology Ashwini Vaishnaw said, adding that the document will form the basis for the country’s AI regulation. “In a month’s time we should be able to publish the consultation paper. That paper will form the base for the regulation to come,” Vaishnaw said at the launch of the World Bank’s World Development Report: The Promise of AI. Vaishnaw said the proposed framework will focus on AI safety, a human-first approach, skilling and ensuring that no person is left behind. It will also address harms to society, particularly those arising from deepfakes.

“Deepfake quality [is] improving. People believe them. It sets a wrong narrative, luring people into doing wrong things,” he said. The consultation paper will also consider psychological harms associated with AI use, Vaishnaw said. AI regulation will need more than a law

Vaishnaw said AI and related technologies cannot be regulated through legislation alone and that India will need to develop “techno-legal” solutions. “The bulk of the regulation and responsibility will have to be taken by industry,” he said.
