Jamia Millia Islamia Vice Chancellor Najma Akhtar said Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed human societies.

  The world has become a global village where people can communicate with each other from any corner of the world, she said.

  "It facilitates people's lives in many ways. There has been a movement away from face-to-face meetings to virtual communication. It was best experienced during the recent global health crisis -- the COVID-19 Pandemic," she said.  

 "Artificial Intelligence (AI) in recent times has transformed human society and it continues to have an impact on human lives," she said speaking at an event hosted at the university on Thursday.
