India's AI Opportunity: Inclusive Growth through Tech and Policy
AI is changing how people work in India.
Some worry it will take jobs, but it could also help people do their jobs better.
It's important for India to teach people new skills, help everyone have equal opportunities, and support new businesses.
Some companies are already using AI to help workers.
To make AI work for everyone, the government needs to make sure companies compete fairly and people can access the technology and skills they need.
AI could reshape millions of jobs and create new tech roles in India by 2030.

Prioritizing skilling, reducing inequality, and fostering entrepreneurship is crucial.
