The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology in India (MeitY) has backtracked from its previous order requiring AI models to obtain government permission before being released to the public. This decision has sparked criticism from both entrepreneurs and investors, both domestically and internationally.
According to MeitY, AI models can now be disseminated to users in India without the need for approval from government agencies. However, developers must always label the model as experimental and not stable to caution users against potential data inaccuracies.
Additionally, MeitY has emphasized that AI models must not operate in a manner that violates the country’s laws or promotes biased information, including the spread of false data.
TLDR: The Indian Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology has withdrawn its requirement for government permission for AI model dissemination, emphasizing the need to label models as experimental and avoid legal violations.
