🧠 News: India plans to roll out AI-powered voice transactions
Read Time: 4 minutes
Our Report: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI), has put forward the idea of introducing an AI-powered conversational payments system, whereby users can initiate payments with their words alone…
🔑 Key Points:
Users will be able to make transactions using voice through an AI system that uniquely authenticates a person’s identity based on voice recordings
Initially, the AI system will support Hindi and English languages, but there are plans to include more Indian languages in the future
This is part of the Prime Ministers UPI (Universal Payments Interface) ambitions which enables users to make payments instantly, across the country, regardless of background
This is part of a larger plan to bring payment access to poorer, rural parts of India as the new technology enables offline payments through a method called “near field communication”
🤨 Why you should care: India is positioning itself at the forefront of leveraging AI in the fintech space, hinting at a future where digital transactions could become as simple as having a conversation.

The US schooling system has begun to embrace AI after many universities initially banned tools like ChatGPT, fearing misuse & plagiarism:
Vanderbilt now offering university-wide training
30% of college students now using ChatGPT for schoolwork
Many high-schools now embracing, rather than shunning AI
With graduate prompt engineering roles offering up to $300k, it’s no surprise that the education system is pivoting to get on board.
A new AI-powered social media app called BeFake has launched under the catchphrase “Why be real when you can be fake?”
This app, available on both App Store and Google Play, encourages users to enhance their social media presence with imaginative AI-generated visuals & emphasizes fantasy over reality.
A step in the wrong direction?
AI2—hosts of the legendary A12 AI incubator—have released "Dolma," the largest open dataset for training language models.
Intended for AI2's upcoming open language model (OLMo) Dolma is free for the AI community to use/modify & challenges the closed nature of datasets from companies like OpenAI.
