As someone working in tech, I'm excited about the academic-industry collaboration. The hackathon and startup showcase are great ways to tap into young Indian talent. Let's hope the MoUs lead to real projects on the ground.

While the vision sounds good, I hope this isn't just another talk shop. We need to see concrete results - like reduced corruption in land records or faster grievance redressal through AI. The roadmap must have clear, measurable goals.

Launching a SpaceTech policy alongside AI is a smart move. MP has the potential to be a hub for deep-tech innovation. Hope they involve local engineering colleges from Indore and Bhopal in these programs.

Good step forward! But the government must ensure data privacy and security are top priorities. We can't have another Aadhaar data leak scare. Transparency in how AI algorithms make decisions is crucial for public trust.

'AI for People, Planet and Progress' – I like the inclusive theme. Hope they discuss using AI for sustainable agriculture and water management in MP. Our farmers need these tech solutions the most. 🙏
