India also included in top 10 countries preparing for AI!


New Delhi . A report has revealed that India is also included in the top ten countries in the preparation of Artificial Intelligence (AI), and there is immense potential for transformation in the public sector through AI in the country.

The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) report based on data from 73 economies revealed that India ranked second worldwide in AI experts and third in research publications with a strong base in AIrelated patents.

On the other hand, more than 70 per cent of the economies studied score below average in key areas such as ecosystem participation, skills and R&D.

Saibal Chakraborty, India Leader of BCG's Technology and Digital Advantage Practice, said, “India's leadership in AI underlines the country's emphasis on integrating technology into highpriority sectors such as agriculture, education and healthcare. As one of the top 10 countries in AI readiness, India has immense potential to transform the public sector through AI.”

“India ranks second globally in AI experts and third in research publications, with a strong base in AIrelated patents,” said Mario Gonsalves, who leads BCG's public sector practice in India.

The report further showed that AI exposure is spread across several key sectors in India. Business services account for 16 percent of GDP and have significant AI exposure with potential improvements in administrative efficiency for government operations.

Retail and wholesale trade accounts for 10 percent of GDP, where AI can streamline public distribution and supply chain management, thereby reducing losses. And public services account for 6 percent of GDP, which offers opportunities for AI to improve service delivery and emergency response.

Agriculture, forestry and fisheries contribute 17 percent to the GDP. AI can be used in precision farming and risk assessment to boost productivity.

The construction sector, with 8 percent of GDP, can use AI for infrastructure planning and asset maintenance. Arts entertainment and personal services can also benefit from AI in public facilities management with 8 percent.

“Realizing this potential requires a multipronged approach, including strengthening infrastructure, enhancing AI research capabilities, and expanding workforce training,” Chakraborty said. Investments in research centers, cloud capabilities, and data systems are critical, along with efforts to foster private collaboration.”

The report also calls for regulatory frameworks to address the ethical use of AI, understand bias, and ensure responsible adoption of the technology.
