Bharti Enterprises Chief Calls for Immediate AI Regulatory Framework

Sunil Bharti Mittal, founder and chairman of Bharti Enterprises, is urging governments worldwide to establish immediate regulatory frameworks to prevent the misuse of artificial intelligence, citing a recent fraud attempt where AI voice-cloning technology impersonated him to target a company executive. Speaking at public forums, Mittal emphasized that while nations must adopt AI to remain competitive, they must simultaneously build "guardrails" to protect societies from emerging threats including deepfakes, voice synthesis fraud, and digital signature forgery.
