Summary
The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology in India has issued an advisory stating that any platform training or testing an artificial intelligence (AI) tool must obtain government approval before making the product available to users within the Indian internet space. This rule is specifically aimed at large or 'significant' platforms, with an exemption for startups, as clarified by Union Minister of State for IT, Rajeev Chandrasekhar. Despite the ministry's intentions, this move has drawn criticism from tech industry leaders who see it as a potential barrier to the progress of AI technologies in India.
