NEW DELHI: AI could either amplify India’s demographic advantage or weaken it, depending on the choices made now, chief economic adviser V Anantha Nageswaran said on Monday, calling for coordinated national action. Speaking virtually at AI Impact Summit during a session on ‘Employability in the AI age’, Nageswaran said technological adoption must be deliberately aligned with mass employability rather than allowed to evolve on its own. “This will not happen by drift,” he said. “It will require political will, state capacity, and national commitment to aligning technological adoption with mass employability.” Framing AI as a pivotal moment in India’s growth journey, he argued that the outcome would be shaped by execution. “India can be the first large society where human abundance and machine intelligence reinforce, and not undermine, each other. The outcome will not be accidental,” he said. The path to co-creating prosperity with AI, he said, begins with strengthening foundational learning and imparting skills that enhance employability in a technology-driven economy.
