The Indian government has made a significant decision regarding the AI Impact Summit, announcing that the event will now last for six days instead of the previously scheduled five. This extension means that the summit, which was originally set to conclude on Friday, will now wrap up on Saturday, February 21. The decision was made to accommodate more attendees, ensuring that various stakeholders can engage with the ongoing conversations and developments in artificial intelligence.

In addition to the extended summit, the timings for the AI Expo have also been extended, allowing the public greater access. While the expo remains closed to the public until Thursday, February 20, it will be open for public viewing on February 20 and 21. This move aims to provide convenience for attendees, highlighting the government's commitment to inclusivity as they showcase the benefits of AI to a larger audience.

During the AI Impact Expo, various companies are presenting the advantages of artificial intelligence, demonstrating its usefulness for the Indian populace, including applications beneficial to the visually impaired and hearing-impaired. The summit is also set to feature participation from world leaders, including presidents and prime ministers, as well as CEOs of major AI companies, indicating its global significance and the high profile of the discussions planned.
