Four biggest challenges for Artificial Intelligence policy makers will be Algorithmic biases, substitution of jobs by AI, fake news, non-robust definition of AI and regulation for AI, according to a brainstorming session held at a workshop organized by the Department of Consumer Affairs (DoCA).

The workshop participants discussed the main aim to create a balance between safeguarding the interest of consumers and using AI for economic growth.

A constructive dialogue between the DoCA and stakeholders explored issues around safeguarding the interest of consumers while reaping the benefits of AI.

The various stakeholders and experts discussed advantages of AI in terms of identifying shopping preferences, buying patterns, enhanced recommendations, predictive support to customers along with the challenges AI pose including privacy concerns, difficulty in assigning liability in case of default and or lapse, algorithmic biasness on parameters like gender, colour etc. and AI regulated bad bots.

DoCA Secretary Rohit Kumar Singh noted that the technology is prevalent in all domains of life and continues to become increasingly important in daily life.

“Therefore, it is all the more imperative to be careful about the effects of these technologies in respect of their relationship with consumers,” he said.

“Uses of AI technology in monitoring prices of essential commodities, facilitating lodging of consumer complaints were also discussed at the workshop.”
