The US-based tech giant Google has announced that the company will be working closely with the Indian Government and industry stakeholders towards developing responsible Artificial Intelligence (AI). Google will share its expertise and knowledge to create responsible AI.

Google expressed gratitude for the chance to meet with the government and industry stakeholders to discuss the development of safeguards for synthetic content.

“We appreciate the opportunity to meet with the government, jointly with industry stakeholders, to discuss the need to develop safeguards around synthetic content and share how we are building tools and guardrails to address associated risks,” a Google spokesperson said in a statement.

“We are committed to continue this collaboration and share our expertise and knowledge towards our collective goal of responsible AI development,” the spokesperson said.

Google is working on developing AI to maximize its positive impact on society while also addressing challenges, guided by its AI principles.
