The sessions highlighted critical applications of AI & ML in law enforcement and aligned with the vision of IndiaAI, to democratize AI for social good, foster innovation, and build skilled human resources. The workshop served as a practical step in integrating AI-driven solutions into policing while promoting ethical, responsible, and effective use of technology in public safety and cybersecurity.
