The Congress on Thursday claimed that nine of its videos created using artificial intelligence have been “forcefully deleted” by BJP governments at the Centre and in states, and said Prime Minister Narendra Modi should work in the nation’s interest instead of “curbing” every voice of dissent.

The opposition party alleged that the deletion of the videos was a “blatant misuse” of the blocking rules against political adversaries and that there was a complete lack of transparency in the process.

There was no immediate response from the government or the BJP to the Congress’ allegations.

Congress social media department head Supriya Shrinate alleged that the Modi government has left no stone unturned in strangling India’s artificial intelligence (AI) potential.

“First, by handing over all our data to America in the trade deal, and now, amid the embarrassing mismanagement at the ongoing AI summit and the shameful revelations of theft and imitation that have tarnished India’s image.

“But ironically, the same Narendra Modi, who makes grand statements about AI, actually fears artificial intelligence,” she said at a press conference here.

In the last six weeks, nine videos created by the Congress using AI have been “forcefully deleted” by the “coward” prime minister, his central and BJP state governments, Shrinate claimed.
