Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw on Thursday announced the “New Delhi Frontier AI Commitments”, a voluntary framework adopted by leading global and Indian artificial intelligence companies at the India AI Impact Summit.
Calling it a “significant outcome” of the summit, Vaishnaw said, “Today, leading frontier AI companies along with our own AI companies have come together to make a set of voluntary commitments — a shared commitment for inclusive AI.”
He outlined two key commitments under the initiative. “The first is advancing real-world AI usage through anonymised and aggregated insights,” the minister said, adding that this would “support evidence-based policymaking on jobs, skills and policy.”
According to Vaishnaw, the effort will help governments and institutions better understand employment trends and skill requirements while maintaining privacy safeguards.
“The second is strengthening multilingual and use-case evaluations,” he said, emphasising the need to ensure that AI systems function effectively across languages and cultures.
“This is especially important for the Global South to ensure that AI works effectively across languages and cultures,” he added.
Vaishnaw said the commitments represent a collaborative step towards responsible AI development. “Together, these efforts mark an important step towards shaping AI that is not only powerful, but also inclusive, development-oriented and globally relevant.”
