In evolving tech landscape, AI has become indispensable : TN Guv

Chennai, Apr 26 (UNI) Tamil Nadu Governor R N Ravi on Saturday said
in the era of evolving technological landscape, Artificial Intelligence now
is not only relevant, but has become indispensable.
Delivering the valedictory address at the 2-day Vice-Chancellors’ Conference
of State, Central and Private Universities of Tamil Nadu at Raj Bhavan,
Udhagamandalam, he said just two years ago, Artificial Intelligence was seen
as an emerging idea.
"Today, it is not only relevant—it has become indispensable, reshaping sectors
such as learning, employment and governance", he said.
He also pointed out how India’s contributions to intellectual property have grown
five-fold, reflecting the country’s rising innovation capacity.
In the rehabilitation sector, there is a growing need for a skilled and compassionate
workforce that ensures dignity and social inclusion of differently abled people.
"As technology continues to disrupt and redefine every sector, India must not merely
catch up, but lead from front with our youth driving the growth economy through innovation,
resolve and bold actions", he added.
Though the Governor had alleged that the DMK government had threatened the State-run
varsity VCs using police from participating in the conference evoking memories of the
Emergency days, the conference witnessed participation from 34 vice chancellors,
administrators and senior faculty members.
The discussions throughout the conference centered on a range of critical themes,
including the implementation of the National Credit Framework, integration of Artificial
Intelligence in learning, fostering academic collaborations, ensuring financial sustainability,
advancing research excellence, promoting innovation and entrepreneurship, capacity
building for learners and faculty and strengthening inclusive and technology-enabled
education.
The Governor said that this conference will continue to serve as a vital platform to strengthen
institutions and equip our youth to be the driving force behind India’s journey toward becoming
a fully developed nation by 2047.
By fostering collaboration, innovation and leadership in higher education, it will contribute to
building a sustained ecosystem where youth remain at the heart of national progress.
