Technology

  • Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs): Deep-learning architecture used to create convincing deepfakes (synthetic audio/video)
  • Agentic AI: Autonomous AI systems requiring limited human intervention
  • Moltbook: World’s first social network built for AI chatbots to interact, share optimisation techniques, and exhibit emergent digital social behaviours

Global AI Governance Models

  • South Korea: Enacted world’s first comprehensive, legally binding AI statute; mandates strict labelling of AI-generated content; enforces rigorous risk assessments for “high-impact” AI in medical and public safety sectors
  • Singapore: Launched principle-based, non-binding Model AI Governance Framework; focuses on transparency, accountability, and risk-based documentation rather than punitive penalties

UPSC Angle

  • GS3: Science & technology, AI regulation
  • GS2: Governance, international comparison
