Speaking at 'RAISE 2020', a virtual summit on AI organized by the Ministry of Electronics and IT and NITI Aayog, the RIL Chief termed intelligent data as 'digital capital' and said that in the coming decades nations will increasingly compete on digital capital.
"India has the unique advantage to harness its enormous digital capital for AI-driven development, which is bottom-up and inclusive. This is because of our twin strengths of democracy and demography," he said.
He exuded confidence that the government will introduce a sound data regulation framework to protect this national resource and ensure data privacy.
"Therefore, the time is ripe, and the tools are ready to make India a world leader in Artificial Intelligence, and to make AI work for all Indians," Ambani said.
He noted that the crucial components are in place to make India a premier 'digital society'.
