EX 301 Artificial Intelligence (AI) Primer: Implications for National Security (feat. Dr Jaganath Sankaran & Maj Gen P K Chakraborty)
In this episode of The Bridge Project Exclusives called as Artificial Intelligence (AI) Primer, we aim to understand what is artificial intelligence and how it could possibly influence national security. We discuss the broader trends in AI around the world and attempt to situate the national security needs of India in light of Artificial Intelligence.
We also address questions like what kind of AI does India want? What are the R&D capabilities that India possess? Are the Indian Armed Forces equipped to assimilate AI as an emerging technology.
We are joined by an interesting set of speakers - Dr Jaganath Sankaran and Maj Gen P K Chakravorty.
Dr. Sankaran is Assistant Professor at Lyndon B Johnson School of Public Policy at University of Texas Austin. He spent the first four years of his career as a defense scientist with the Indian Missile R&D establishment. He has held fellowships at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, Harvard University and at RAND Corporation.
Maj Gen (Dr) P.K. Chakravorty is currently a Senior Fellow (veteran) at CLAWS. Post-retirement the officer was appointed as an Advisor to Brahmos Aerospace Private Limited which is a Joint Venture between India and Russia. He is currently a Defence Analyst. He has written books, articles and projects for IDSA, USI, CLAWS, VIF and numerous periodicals.
