How will AI regulations impact startups and independent developers?
Diverse stakeholders peer-review challenges to AI regulations
Join us on 18th April 2024 for a virtual roundtable to discuss the potential impact of future AI regulations with experts.
The community will share their concerns and recommendations for the way forward in AI regulations and contribute to the public consultation process. Findings and insights from this discussion will be published and shared with MeitY.
Participation
This is a virtual event and is free to attend. Live stream and recordings of the talks will only be available to The Fifth Elephant members.
Who would benefit from attending this discussion?
Those who are interested in and will be affected by AI policies in India are encouraged to share their insights, particularly:
- AI startup teams
- Individual developers
- Investors tracking the AI sector in India
- Civil society actors
- Think tanks
- Policymakers including government officials and regulators
- Lawyers and policy advisors
What outcomes will this provide participants with?
- A forum to voice concerns regarding AI regulations in India
- Participate in a discussion and understand views from policymakers, startups and consumers
- Better understand the impacts of the Advisory for users and businesses
- Plan the way forward for public consultations with the tech community
Why this is important?
On 1st March, 2024, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) issued an advisory to the AI industry, broadly stating due diligence requirements for intermediaries and platforms under the IT Act, 2000 and IT Rules, 2021. Industry bodies, in particular the AI ecosystem, shared their concerns regarding the lack of clarity on the Advisory’s intended audience, processes and standards, and legal implications in case of non-compliance. The Advisory was revised on 15th March, 2024, removing some concerns but indicating a reactive approach to AI regulations.
Feedback from the industry was gathered through conversations within The Fifth Elephant community with developers, founders, lawyers, and policy analysts. It was further discussed that the AI ecosystem must be actively involved in the policymaking and consultation process, to ensure minimum friction and delays in implementation. This roundtable is a start.
