India to offer free AI, digital media training for youth
The government just rolled out a bunch of new digital initiatives, with the big one being free AI and digital media training for 15,000 young people.
This is happening through the National AI Skilling Initiative in partnership with Google and YouTube, all set up at the Indian Institute of Creative Technologies.
MyWAVES platform launched for users to create and share content
These moves are designed to boost India's creative economy (think media, entertainment, and content creation) by making tech more accessible for everyone.
There's also a new MyWAVES platform where users can make and share their own digital content.
Plus, rural viewers will get easier access to public TV services such as DD Free Dish right from their TVs (no extra set-top box needed) thanks to built-in satellite tuners and an upgraded program guide.
