India, Singapore and the Global Partnership on Artificial Intelligence

Karthik Nachiappan, Nishant Rajeev

Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven technologies are percolating across society and are being deployed to address gaps in areas like healthcare, education, energy and transportation. To channel and streamline these efforts, several governments across the globe are launching national strategies for widespread AI adoption. While India launched the ‘AI for All’ initiative in 2018, the Singapore government has unveiled its ‘National Artificial Intelligence Strategy’.

To evaluate the various challenges arising out of the deployment of AI and how to leverage these innovations to tackle problems such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the Institute of South Asian Studies at the National University of Singapore and the Ananta Centre, New Delhi, jointly organised a roundtable on ‘India, Singapore and the Global Partnership on Artificial Intelligence’. This report is the outcome of the roundtable discussion.
