Union minister Jitin Prasada on Monday urged caution in the use of artificial intelligence, warning that AI-generated misinformation could undermine democratic systems. ADVERTISEMENTHe underlined that AI cannot replace teachers and its risks in education must be carefully addressed. But if there's kind of misinformation using AI, it has the power to derail democracies. On AI in education, Prasada said the technology should be integrated beyond the school curriculum. Prasada said that over time, using AI as a shortcut would be counterproductive, and teachers should use it as an enabler.
