The AI Legislators’ Forum (AILF) is a pioneering initiative by Future Shift Labs to equip India’s lawmakers with the knowledge, foresight, and networks needed to navigate the evolving landscape of Artificial Intelligence. As AI reshapes global governance and power structures, AILF seeks to ensure political leaders can respond with democratic, ethical, and inclusive frameworks. The AILF Secretariat, based at the Future Shift Labs (FSL) office, will coordinate the forum’s activities and foster dialogue between policymakers and experts to strengthen informed AI policymaking in India.
