AI cannot change fundamental nature of decision-making: LG
New Delhi, Aug 23: AI tools can accelerate the speed of business-management processes, but they cannot change the fundamental nature of decision-making. Leadership, trust, and decision-making remain fundamentally human responsibilities, said Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Sunday as he addressed the 8th batch of the Integrated Programme in Management (IPM) and the 6th batch of the Integrated Programme in Law (IPL) at IIM Rohtak. The Lieutenant Governor graced the valedictory function of the Induction & Orientation Programme and highlighted the institute's pioneering initiatives in sports management, its commitment to gender diversity, 100 per cent placements, and outreach programmes such as skill development for the daughters of Jammu and Kashmir. Sinha said that induction today is not merely about career opportunities or institutional brand value. In a rapidly transforming world, students must understand that the environment they prepare for will change dramatically by the time theygraduate, he said, addingthat technological progress is accelerating at an unprecedented pace, making lifelong learning essential to adapt to the evolving landscape. I want the spirit of adapting to change and working constructively to take deep root in your minds. Remember, the most important question in life is never 'What do I do?' The real question is: 'What do I know so well that, despite all challenges and changing circumstances, I can re-establish myself fully in the market?' The truth is that the ground beneath our feet is changing, right now, far faster than ever before, he said. The LG said that Artificial Intelligence will soon become as ubiquitous as Excel in management,just like an invisible, powerful infrastructure rather thana subject of study. Yet, he stressed that leadership, trust, and decision-making remain fundamentally human responsibilities. No technology can answer what should be created, what should be trusted, or how people should be led. AI tools can accelerate the speed of the business-management processes, but they cannot change the fundamental nature of decision-making, he said. For law students, the Lieutenant Governor underlined that while AI can draft contracts, it cannot interpret human intent or deliver justice with empathy. The legal system's enduring role lies in accountability and fairness. He said these are the qualities machines cannot replicate. He commended the IPM students for their farsighted choice to study management and leadership at a young age, urging them to treat their years at IIM Rohtak not merely as a degree pursuit but as a journey of self-discovery. The students of the Integrated Programme in Law are also entering a profession that has played a highly distinctive role for centuries, he added. Sinha encouraged all students to ask questions, engage in respectful disagreements, and explore diverse fields beyond the curriculum. New ideas develop through meaningful dialogue and healthy differences of opinion. Do not limit yourselves to the curriculum, because studying diverse fields will broaden your vision. In the coming years, you will not only acquire knowledge, but also discover yourselves. You will enjoy successes and face challenges; at times you will be proud of your decisions, and at times you will learn from them. These very experiences will make you not only better business leaders, but also better human beings, he said. The Lieutenant Governor said that while no one can predict the world of tomorrow, wisdom, moral courage, and values will remain the greatest support for students. He urged them to sharpen curiosity, strengthen character and commit to contributing positively to society and the nation.

World Wisdom Forum : J&Ks youth power key to Indias development story: LG
New Delhi, Aug 23: Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Sunday highlighted the transformation in Jammu and Kashmir, noting the region's immense potential in youth power, natural resources, tourism, horticulture, handicrafts, and hydropower. He urged industry leaders to actively invest in the Union Territory, ensuring it becomes a vital contributor to India's development story. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has created confidence and opened new avenues for the youth in Jammu Kashmir. It is the collective responsibility of Industry now to make Jammu and Kashmir a subject of constructive action. We must recognise its hydropower potential. Connect its horticulture, tourism and handicrafts with global markets. The intervention of industry leaders in every sector of Jammu Kashmir will be an investment in India's future, Sinha said as he addressed the World Wisdom Forum, organised by the IIT Alumni Council in New Delhi. In his keynote address, the Lieutenant Governor congratulated the Council for its efforts in bringing together eminent personalities to deliberate on the theme of Viksit Bharat and India's collective future. We must create the future rather than purchase it by becoming not just a consumer but a global creator of technologies, innovations, and ideas. We must resolve that we will not merely use artificial intelligence; we will also contribute to the future of artificial intelligence. We must resolve that we will not import innovation; we will export innovation, he said. The LG emphasised the importance of unity in progress and underscored that India's journey towards becoming a developed nation must be inclusive, rooted in tradition yet forward-looking, and balanced between technological strength and human sensitivity. I believe that when a group of people from different sectors has a deep desire to achieve something, the pain and intensity of that yearning can ultimately become the means of achieving it. Just as a seed buried in the soil is restless to germinate, if the energy of a nation becomes intensely eager to achieve its goals, nothing is impossible, he said. Reflecting on India's aspirations under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Sinha said the seed of Viksit Bharat has already sprouted and historic milestones have been achieved in the past 12 years. The Lieutenant Governor identified five major challenges that eminent personalities, industries, business leaders, and engineers must address together to realise the vision of Viksit Bharat. First, transforming India's vast young population into a skilled workforce equipped with expertise in emerging technologies is important for us and also ensuring sustainable development by balancing progress with environmental responsibility. Second, we need to strengthen institutions by building transparent, accountable, and efficient institutions responsive to citizens' needs. Third, we should focus on ensuring balanced regional development by bridging gaps between advanced cities and underserved regions to create equitable growth. Fourth, we must create the future rather than purchase it by becoming not just a consumer but a global creator of technologies, innovations, and ideas. Fifth, we must resolve that we will not merely use artificial intelligence; we will also contribute to the future of artificial intelligence. We must resolve that we will not import innovation; we will export innovation, he said. The Lieutenant Governor urged the younger generation to prepare themselves for the responsibilities of 2047, when India will celebrate 100 years of independence, and to ensure that the nation's progress uplifts every region and community. The new generation, which will be at the peak of its careers and energy in 2047, must ask itself today: When India becomes a developed nation, what will you be creating? What impact will my creation have on society, and how will it affect people's lives? Although eminent personalities are engaged in different activities, I strongly believe that together they are creating one common thingthe future of India. We must contribute to the welfare of our country, society and humanity as a whole, the Lieutenant Governor said. Shashank Mani Tripathi, Member of Parliament; Ravi Sharma, President, IIT Alumni Council; Dr. Ashish Chauhan, MD & CEO, National Stock Exchange (NSE); eminent alumni of IIT and prominent citizens from different walks of life were present.
