India's AI royalty plan faces criticism

India's AI royalty plan faces criticism

India has a plan to make AI companies pay money to creators whose work is used to train AI models.

The government wants to set up a central body to collect and distribute this money.

However, experts like Rohit Kumar from The Quantum Hub think this plan might not work well.

They say it's hard to figure out how much Indian content is used in global AI models and how much money should be paid.

Also, the plan might not be fair to all creators, as it sets a blanket rate for all content.

Kumar believes the plan has too many problems and might not satisfy anyone.
