The Black Swan Moment: Impact of AI on Society and Governance

A thought-provoking discussion on how artificial intelligence is reshaping society, governance, and the creative industries. This session brings together perspectives from the arts, diplomacy, and governance to examine AI not as a technical tool but as a force transforming how we work, create, govern, and relate to each other. The conversation explores how can we regulate AI without stifling innovation, what the creative industry’s disruption tells us about broader societal impacts, and how India can position itself as an AI leader rather than a follower.
