Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday warned against the misuse of artificial intelligence, saying that without safeguards, it could expose children to the risks of misinformation, deepfakes and exploitation.
Speaking at an outreach session of the G7 summit in this French commune, Modi also called for strengthening global cooperation against deepfakes, misinformation, and cyber fraud.
Modi said that AI can educate children in their own languages, boost their creativity, and personalise learning.
However, without safeguards, this technology can expose them to risks such as misinformation, deepfakes, and exploitation, he warned.
"We must transform the digital space into a learning playground for children, not a tool for manipulation," he said, addressing the G7 session titled 'Ensuring a Safe, Rapid and Efficient Rollout of AI'.
