In this session, we will explore the far-reaching implications of India’s new data protection law, the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, on the world of generative AI. Drawing on recent developments internationally, exemplified by the Italian DPA’s ChatGPT saga, we will dissect the key provisions of the Indian law and their potential impact on the development and deployment of AI models. Join us to understand how this legislation may reshape training AI models, consent mechanisms, and accountability in the era of AI, shedding light on lessons learned from similar regulatory efforts worldwide – and the manner in which generative AI must evolve and change for Indian compliance.
