DIF FLAGS SECURITY RISK IN PAKISTAN'S BID TO JOIN BRICS-BACKED AI BLOC

That’s an interesting development. The Digital India Foundation (DIF) opposing Pakistan’s inclusion in the AI Alliance Network (AIANET) definitely raises some significant political and security questions. Given that AIANET was founded on the idea of ethical, transparent, and peaceful AI development, you can understand why DIF might be concerned about including a country like Pakistan, especially considering the sensitive nature of AI in defense and national security.

The inclusion of Pakistan could also be seen as a potential risk to the alliance's credibility, especially if there are concerns over whether the country might use AI technologies for dual-use purposes (military and civilian applications). This is a major issue in global discussions about AI regulation—how do you ensure that AI technologies are used responsibly and ethically, without them falling into the wrong hands or being used for military escalation?
