It is heartening, though, that one can get a fair idea of the technologies that are maturing during the year. 2017 will see the next technological revolution reshaping Indian society, business and the government landscape, as our cover story in this second edition of Mint’s Technology Report will reveal. In this issue, we have also dedicated a section to artificial intelligence (AI), aimed at underscoring how important this trend is and what this umbrella concept will mean to individuals, companies and governments. This issue also features an interview with Shivaram Kalyanakrishnan, an IIT-Bombay professor who specializes in AI, and is part of an 18-member study panel of the Stanford University-hosted report titled Artificial Intelligence and Life. We hope to continue bringing you the latest in technology through these reports.
