'World Praising India's Progress In AI': PM Modi In Mann Ki Baat

PM Modi praised India's progress in AI and encouraged children to spend a day as a scientist. He also announced that he will hand over his social media accounts to inspiring women on Women's Day.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday addressed his monthly program ‘Mann Ki Baat’ and particularly talked about Artificial Intelligence by recalling his visit to Paris to co-chair the AI Action Summit with the President of France, Emmanuel Macron.

While addressing his 119th edition of the show, he said that Indians are 'second to none' in using new technologies.

“Recently, I visited Paris to participate in a big AI conference. There, the world greatly appreciated India’s progress in this sector. We can also see examples of how the people of our country are using AI in different ways today", he said.

Earlier, in the Summit, PM Modi appealed for joint global efforts to establish governance and standards for artificial intelligence in order to uphold shared values and address risks. He said that AI is writing the code for humanity in this century and added that it can transform millions of lives by promoting health, agriculture and lives.

Discussing ISRO's 100th rocket launch, PM Modi said that it reflected our resolve to touch new heights in Space Science every day. "Last month, the country witnessed the launch of ISRO’s 100th rocket. This is not just a number; it also reflects our resolve to touch new heights in Space Science every day. Our space journey had commenced in a rather modest way."

He also said that children and youth should try to spend one day as a scientist. "In a few days to come, we are going to celebrate 'National Science Day'. The interest and passion of our children and youth in science matters a lot. I have an idea for this, which you can call ‘One Day as a Scientist’. That is, you should try to spend one day as a scientist. You can choose any day as per your convenience and choice."

While announcing that he will hand over his social media accounts for a day to inspiring women to mark National Women's Day on March 8, he said, "The platform might be mine, but it will be about their experiences, their challenges and their achievements. If you want to avail of this opportunity, become a part of this experiment through the special forum created on NamoApp and share your message with the whole world through my X and Instagram accounts. So come… this time on Women's Day, let us all celebrate, honour, and salute the indomitable power of women".
