Dear Mr Patra,

India is known as good in Software Engineering in all over the world.. As you know, automobiles are developing day by day, especially in electrical area. This means India should deal with AI technologies for the electrical cars. For example AI help the drivers to control the road conditions using AI techniques.

Yeah, true. I understand the future of mankind with AI. But my doubt how India, with all of its complicated administration, poor infrastructure and above all the differences within and between the communities will be able to walk with the technologically advanced countries. I don't say India is by any means short of talent or technologically backward nevertheless how long it would take to adapt to those rapid changes that's happening in the global automobiles sector, i.e. automation, AI, fuel etc.

What drives in India market is Cost and hence Volume plays vital role. Once Cost effective solution is availbale, all other issue will get address along with it and Infra structure problem also get solved.

In a world where mobility of people is so easy, India will loose talented people who will move to other countries having the required infrastructure.

in the age of globalization, the movement of talent resource has become easy. the talented manpower will move to other places across the globe in the absence of good infrastructure which will lead to more brain drain from the country.

Dear Dr.Patra,

Some of the consequences will be impacting the long term.More than 80% of modern automobiles is digital technologies. a stunted growth will surely affect. As such some people feel that India is 20-30 years behind some of the countries with advanced digital technologies.

Dr.K.R.Subramanian

How about driver-less, GPS navigated , AI enabled automobiles future??

It depends on India. We need to adopt appropriate technologies. There is no need to leap frog. Since the market is here we can if we wish have the upper hand.
