The digital world is here to stay. We all need to know this to move
forward in the new world which is digital. Where is India here ?,
Though obviously later than the developed nations, India has
certainly made a start.
The dawn of AI in India in the present is pointing towards an
extremely bright and welcoming Future.
According to reports, AI is believed to boost the rate of
innovation in India by about 230% in just the upcoming two years!
A study by IT giant Accenture says AI has the potential to add
nearly $1 Trillion to the Indian economy just by changing the form of work and
generating better outcomes for businesses. It is also predicted that AI
empowerment could add up to 15% to India's income until 2035.
Artificial Intelligence has a great scope in India because of our
vast and majorly young population. With applications like Google Virtual
Assistant being increasingly used by various groups of the population from
urban as well as rural India, in their own languages and dialects, signifies
that AI has already started to deepen its roots in the country.
Provided the huge percent of the population already using
smartphones and the Internet and the 'Digital India' wave flowing through the
country, it can be speculated the country could be using a lot of AI in near
future largely through smartphones and yes, by the urban and the rural
population alike.
In the corporate world, when almost all software companies and
large industries we're already keen on hiring AI professionals trained in the
field of Machine Learning, the current pandemic scenario will further catalyze
the demand to automate their operations using AI.
Creating an increased demand for AI professionals in the world and
India as well.
The Chariot of AI has been pulled so far till here through a way
full of obstacles, by our highly competent Workforce. And abled Workforce is
what we need to pull this Chariot forward to the future.
It has been seen all around the nation. For instance -
•The Indian army is on the way to implement AI to eliminate
human error in weapon systems, surveillance.
• The Ministry of Housing has ordered the implementation of AI
algorithms to help curb corruption in bookkeeping.
• The government is also planning to implement artificial
intelligence in Indian agriculture, banking, schooling, and the army.
THE WORKFORCE:
As of 2019, around 72,000 professionals stood employed in the
sector of AI- almost double from 40,000 in 2018. Out of the new jobs created,
23,000 were generated by Bengaluru, 17,000 by Delhi, and 9,000 by Mumbai. But,
the majority of the workforce -around 65%- comprises of experienced
professionals transitioning their jobs to AI.
Whereas, the number of freshers stepping into AI career stood at
6000.
While these figures might not be very impressive while considering
a job in AI in India, what might actually surprise you is the fact that the
demand for the workforce in Indian AI actually outnumbers the supply!
In spite of being in demand, 2,500
job positions in AI remained unoccupied in 2019, due to the shortage of
required talent!
Limited availability of required workforce remains to be one of
the biggest obstacles in the path of AI-enabled India. While countries like
China produce thousands of PhDs in AI every year, India's number still lies in
a few hundred.
While major institutes of the country like IISc (Bangalore), IIT
(Bombay), IIT (Delhi), IIT (Guwahati), IIT (Hyderabad), IIT (Kanpur), IIT
(Kharagpur), CDAC ( Pune) and IIT (Madras) do offer quality education in AI, we
need more such institutions.
While a limited workforce is not the only challenge, there are
some other big hurdles as well.
