India Used AI During Operation Sindoor Against Pakistan
India Used AI During Operation Sindoor Against Pakistan | Vantage with Palki Sharma
During Operation Sindoor, India heavily deployed Artificial Intelligence or AI against Pakistan. During Offensive missions, the Rafale jet used AI for optimal strikes on terror pads deep inside Pakistan. Meanwhile, India's Air Defence System also used AI to track and shoot down projectiles fired by Pakistan. This means India is most likely the first nation in the world to deploy AI on the battlefield. Meanwhile, India has announced a ₹50,000 crore package for the defence after Operation Sindoor.

Cyber commandos to spot and prevent AI-driven offences
1 2 Pune: As cybercriminals increasingly employ artificial intelligence (AI) for sophisticated attacks, the Union Ministry of Home Affairs has decided to train "cyber commandos" to effectively identify, intercept, and neutralise AI-driven cyber threats. Training for two batches of commandos, comprising law enforcement personnel, including officers from the Maharashtra Police, will soon commence at the Defence Institute of Advanced Technology (DIAT), a deemed university of the DRDO. Manisha Nene, the head of computer science department at DIAT, said, "As cybercrimes rapidly evolve due to integration of advanced AI tools in criminal activities, we have updated the syllabus for our training programme. We will train them on how to investigate these AI tools used in criminal cases."

"The trained personnel, particularly from the Jammu and Kashmir Police, played a crucial role during Operation Sindoor, utilising their knowledge gained in the course. This feedback was communicated to us," added Nene. The six-month course will cover various aspects of combating a new breed of cybercrimes, including AI-generated deepfakes, automated phishing campaigns, identity spoofing, algorithmic attacks on critical infrastructure, and real-time manipulation of data streams. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 11 Foods That Help In Healing Knee Pain Naturally - Which to Eat (Most People Ignore) Undo According to the report titled, "The State of AI-Powered Cybercrime: Threat & Mitigation Report 2025," recently released by the Global Initiative for Restructuring Environment and Management (GIREM) in Bengaluru, AI tools are implicated in approximately 82.6% of all phishing emails. "AI is not only used to generate realistic email text but also to create convincing dashboards, register typo-squatting domains, and develop dynamic, interactive phishing pages, significantly enhancing the effectiveness of these cyber threats," stated the report. DIAT has involved eight of its professors and engaged DRDO scientists and other experts working in the field. "What is crucial for us is to bring a variety of perspectives and scenarios so that attendees can work on or investigate complex cases in real-time. We also simulate situations by working on specific cases during the class, providing them with exposure to real situations," the official added. Sanjay Shintre, deputy inspector general of the Maharashtra Cyber Cell, told TOI, "The use of AI tools is significant in several cyber cases, and it is often complicated to address these issues at the police station level. Therefore, the role of highly trained police personnel is crucial. These trained cyber commandos will become valuable assets for the force in tackling advanced cybercrimes." Shintre noted that very few personnel from the Maharashtra Police were able to pass the entrance examination for the course due to lack of theoretical knowledge. "There are many police officers and personnel who excel in investigating cybercrime cases, but their lack of theoretical knowledge prevents them from clearing the entrance tests. We are working to change this scenario," he added. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).

CXOs need to do more to build customer trust in their AI deployments: EY India
EY India 'Responsible AI Pulse Survey' reveals a gap between how Indian consumers and C-suite executives perceive AI risk. While consumers express risk over job displacement, misinformation and loss of control, 27% of CXOs share these concerns underscoring an urgent need for stronger governance and a deeper engagement with public sentiment. The survey highlights that 37% of CXOs struggle to develop AI governance frameworks that keep pace with today's technologies, and 30% believe their current approach to technology risk is inadequate for the next wave of AI. By contrast, consumer respondents are far more uneasy: 68% worry about AI-generated false information being taken seriously, 56% fear significant job losses, and 61% are concerned that AI could spiral beyond human control. Yet 73% of organizations report having AI embedded in key initiatives, suggesting many leaders may be underestimating the social and reputational risks. 'Our survey reveals a widening confidence gap: consumers are deeply uneasy about misinformation, job displacement and unchecked AI, yet a smaller portion of CXOs share those worries,' says Mahesh Makhija, Partner & Technology Consulting Leader, EY India. 'Closing this gap starts with embedding robust governance, clear accountability and open dialogue with your customers at every stage of the AI lifecycle.' That confidence gap extends across all pillars of Responsible AI. Despite these gaps, Indian enterprises are steadily advancing their AI maturity. 30% of CXOs report fully integrated, scaled AI solutions enterprise-wide; 43% say AI is embedded in most initiatives and is being refined to transform operations; and the remaining 27% are aligning AI integration with a strategic roadmap. Notably, none of the surveyed organizations remain at pilot or proof-of-concept stages, signalling a broad shift from experimentation to operationalization and scale.
