SURPRISE :
''' THESE JOBS THEME '''
THE LACK OF OPPORTUNITY FOR YOUNG PEOPLE was an animating impulse behind the '' cockroach '' protest over education that erupted just recently.
Mr. Modi, who has promised to head India into a golden era of prosperity and modernization, offered a rare concession and replaced his education minister.
But the underlying anger over the lack of skilled jobs for graduates is not by any means easy to resolve.
While data-annotation companies like Objectways do much of their work for companies outside of India, the Modi government would rather see homegrown A.I. businesses developing their own applications so the economic impact is greater.
S. Krishnan, who leads the country's information technology ministry, said in an interview that India has an opportunity to deploy the biggest resource - its 1.4 billion people - in the parts of the A.I. economy where a particular kind of human knowledge is necessary :
That can involve jobs such as translating the many languages spoken in India or monitoring patients' in an intensive care ward, both of which are being done by Indian companies today, he said.
India should avoid adding too many A.I. jobs that could go away just as the back-office jobs did. Mr. Krishnan added :
'' We have to look for higher-value added jobs.'' As many as 1.5 million jobs in information and technology services would disappear because of disruption from A.I. according to a 2025 report from a government think tank.
The range of activities that artificial intelligence can make more efficient. So are the entrepreneurial opportunities.
Puneet Jindal, chief executive and founder of Labeller, a data-annotation company in the state of Punjab, said that as A.I. begins to power more products in the office and at home, there will be greater need for data from diverse populations, collected in many languages.
'' India is one of the most diverse countries on planet Earth, and people have so many different ways of working,'' Mr. Jindal said. '' That kind of scale you can get from India is phenomenal.''
That is especially true in the emerging market for robotics devices designed to complete tasks humans do themselves today.
AI Objectways' labs in Karur, where two New York Times reporters visited in July, many workers spend their days annotating data for a humanoid robot designed to perform household chores.
Other projects include work on a device that can help blind people by telling them what their surroundings look like.
One recent morning, a worker in a test kitchen operated a pair of robotic pincers with camera attached to them so Objectways could record and then analyze video of how they performed various household tasks :
Picking up plates, unscrewing the top of a water bottle and pouring its contents into a cup, arranging food. Employees repeated these tasks in Objectways' bathroom and bedroom.
'' We are giving the robot the data and saying ' learn from this,' said Ravi Jalingham, the founder and chief executive of Objectways. He became interested in the field after working with a lending company to streamline its application process with A.I.
He started Objectways in his hometown, Karur, in 2019, seeing an opportunity to put recent graduates to work. His wife hired their first 20 employees, he said.
