New Delhi: The Global Partnership on Artificial Intelligence’s (GPAI) Chair will be handed over to India by France. At the GPAI conference in Tokyo for the symbolic handover from France, Rajeev Chandrasekhar, Minister of State for Electronics and Information Technology, will represent the nation. This development follows the assumption of the G20 Presidency, a grouping of the largest economies in the world.

GPAI is a global initiative to promote ethical and human-centered artificial intelligence development and application. The GPAI has 25 member nations, according to an AIR journalist, including the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, South Korea, and Singapore.

India became a founder member of the GPAI in 2020. By 2035, artificial intelligence is projected to boost India’s economy by 967 billion US dollars. By 2025, it is anticipated to increase India’s GDP by 450 to 500 billion US dollars, or 10% of the country’s aim of 5 trillion dollars.
