Emphasizing the role of women from tier 2, tier 3 cities and villages in ideation and design process of tech stack behind AI. The issue of bias in AI system has to be solved from the technical base. While the development in above areas are mostly male oriented, we need adequate social support for women to come into core process. Especially such women holds accounts of traditional bias, which needs to be analyzed in proper manner so that it will not get into design or functioning of AI systems. We need more women who can build tech for true responsible AI.

AI capacity-building;

My organization took inspiration from most of the proposed and enacted laws on AI, as well as policies that capacity building from grassroot level is the primary requirement of responsible AI implementation. We have trained over 2000 government officers spanning 5 states as well as in central organization on how to use AI safely, what are the ways in which AI tools can be given used in public service, how to ensure data protection as well as upholding human rights in the process. We have also trained more than 1000 students from schools and colleges on the ethical, legal and safe use of AI. These are the first building block any country needs to adopt so that other steps can have true effects, rather than just staying on paper as a policy.

Three issues need specific attention in my opinion: 1) The geo-political equations keeping the tech stack in uncertainty, creating huge questions before many nations who are not giants in AI. 2) The issue of climate impact needs to be seriously considered and more efforts should be put for adopting clean forms of energy to power AI (strong emphasis on Solar power) and 3) Techo-legal uncertainties makes the business unbale to take proper stance, thereby creating hinderance. There needs to be more global co-operation, not only from tech-policy, but also regarding nature of laws as wells as role of judiciary. Same technology should not be assessed on 2 different stance in two different jurisdictions.

Most of the public sector officials and government offices wish to use AI and are utilizing inappropriate tools, with out any proper action plan. This creates huge risks. Hence, there is massive requirement of capacity building among officers as well as citizens. We do not believe that any technology is inherently bad. But its improper or ill motive use can cause irreparable damages in social structure of any country.

AI dialogue should bring parity of norms so that not only developed nations but even least developed nations can take most benefit of AI. It should consider establishing certain basic norms that needs to be followed by all, no matter who the are. This is a costly process but I propose the norm of SPLITFARE is ethical and responsible AI needs to be achieved in true spirit.

As you may know and was visible in India AI Impact Summit 2026, India is putting significant efforts in bringing structure to AI ambitions of Global South. Further it has recently established a AI Governance and Economic Group consisting of key leaderships in India's AI ecosystem. In my opinion the Dialogue can open channels that can not only improve the global understanding of AI governance approaches, but even help in drawing plans for appropriate and ethical use as well as trade of AI from India and to India.

The format and structure should not only consider the voice of experienced leaders, but should also consider voice of millennials, Gen Z and Gen Alpha as they are the one mostly getting affected by the functioning of AI (specially GenAI).

Voices of women from tier 3 cities and villages as well as those of young girls are significantly missing from AI governance discussions. Special focus should be made to bring them in.

In my opinion the dialog should not be restricted as a simple forum of discussions. It should be a forum in which commitments are made, which should be tracked using digital technologies. We need more actions based on accountabilities, not just promises.
