The inaugural Artificial Intelligence (AI) Task Force was constituted by the US Chamber of Commerce's US-India Business Council (USIBC) on Thursday. The task force met online to examine cross-sector collaboration in light of AI's increasing significance. Meta was designated as the task force's co-chair.

By utilising the best business talent in America and India, this expansion seeks to reinforce USIBC's efforts to promote collaboration and innovation in the quickly developing field of artificial intelligence.

Inderpreet Sawhney, group general counsel and chief compliance officer, Infosys, who joined the committee, said “At Infosys, we attach great significance to the responsible roll out of AI, which is also one of the key focus areas of the Advisory Committee. As part of this Committee, I am eager to share our experiences around the techno-legal aspects of AI that Infosys had the opportunity to shape. With our combined talent pool and data resources, the collaboration between India and the U.S. has tremendous value to unlock.”

USIBC president ambassador Atul Keshap said the leadership and expertise of committee members “will play a crucial role in shaping our strategic approach to AI, enabling us to navigate the challenges and opportunities across various sectors such as business, biotechnology, healthcare, logistics, and technology.”

According to USIBC, the AI task force aims to develop, leverage, and commercialize AI technologies for the benefit of each nation's democratic citizens. It also seeks to ensure that the industries in both countries are competitive. Finally, the task force seeks to align and drive leadership in the AI ecosystem between the US and India.
