New Delhi, February 11: Independent Rajya Sabha member Kapil Sibal on Tuesday urged the government to clarify its vision for artificial intelligence (AI), given the potential impact on employment in India. He also criticized the Union Budget for 2025-26, highlighting the absence of a comprehensive long-term strategy for the country's future.
While participating in the Budget debate, Sibal raised concerns about India's readiness to face external challenges, particularly in light of the US President's ongoing tariff war.
"Technologies like ChatGPT and DeepSeek are at the forefront of a global technological revolution. Where do we stand? What plans do we have for the future? We were hoping the finance minister would outline how we intend to tackle these emerging challenges," Sibal remarked.
