India's AI Surveillance Shift to Real-Time Intelligence

India is quickly adding many surveillance cameras in cities and public places.

Right now, these cameras mostly record videos that are watched later if something happens.

But now, experts say using AI can help watch and understand what's happening in real-time.

This means cameras can do more than just record; they can help make decisions quickly, like managing traffic or catching crimes earlier.

To keep this safe, the AI should work directly on the cameras or nearby computers, not sending sensitive videos over the internet.

This makes the system more secure.

However, there's a need for clear rules on how to use these AI cameras in public places to ensure they are used properly and fairly.
