Vinod Khosla Pitches AI as India’s Parallel Public System: From Tutors to Doctors

• Vinod Khosla proposes AI to bolster India's digital public infrastructure, starting with DIKSHA and extending to healthcare and agriculture.
• He suggests an "AI-first" DIKSHA 3.0, an adaptive system trained on student interactions to diagnose learning gaps and provide personalized teaching.
• Khosla envisions AI-based primary care to address India's doctor-patient ratio, with AI diagnosing conditions and prescribing tests 24/7 at near-zero cost.
• He advocates for integrating these AI services with Aadhaar to enable AI-delivered welfare, similar to direct benefit transfers.
• For agriculture, Khosla proposes AI to provide every farmer with 24/7 access to "PhD-level agronomist" advice, offering hyper-local and language-specific guidance.
