The pace of technological advancement in India, according to Sundar Pichai, who is in the country, has been extraordinary. Google, he added, supports startups and small businesses, invests in cybersecurity, offers education and skill training, and uses artificial intelligence (AI) in fields like agriculture and healthcare.

"I'm here to check how our USD 10 billion, 10-year India Digitization Fund (IDF) is progressing and to offer fresh approaches. Our Google for India event is advancing India's digital future.

Pichai expressed his astonishment at the ways in which individuals are already utilising technology to improve their communities.

"One of the local tech entrepreneurs I met today pioneered the field by providing a radiation-free and non-invasive technology for breast cancer screening; another created a chatbot that aids in stress management. During a discussion at Women Will, I was pleased to hear their tales and to provide my opinions on how technology may increase opportunities.
