India Today AI Summit 2026: AI For A Billion | 90% of White-Collar Jobs To Disappear?

Описание: At the India Today AI summit, experts discussed the trajectory of the India AI Mission and its socio-economic impact. Lalitesh Katragadda, creator of Arogya Setu, issued a stark warning, stating, 'Within five years, I think we will have the algorithms and systems where the existing white-collar jobs that we have, for the work we are doing today, roughly 90% can go away.' However, he noted that new roles would emerge as AI serves the unserved. Rahul Kothari, Co-founder of PhonePe, highlighted how AI is already transforming commerce and customer service, predicting that AI agents could drive over 50% of the online economy within five years. Youth researcher Nikhila Natarajan emphasized the need for a new vocabulary in regulation and listening to younger generations regarding technology 'red lines.' The panel also stressed the necessity of a 'Sovereign AI' for India to ensure cultural context and economic autonomy, arguing that Silicon Valley models cannot solve India's specific edge cases or provide the necessary 'kill switch' for national security.
