Dr. Sabine Kapasi & Dr.Hardik Sankhla

I’m excited to announce that our latest article on Protecting Patient Information and Advocating for Transparent and Secure AI Systems in Healthcare has been featured Express Computer. In this piece, I delve into India’s transformative journey in healthcare driven by artificial intelligence (AI), exploring how ethical guidelines and secure data frameworks can help address the critical balance between innovation and patient privacy.

What if responsible AI development could be the key to ensuring patient safety in a rapidly evolving healthcare landscape? The integration of AI in India’s healthcare system continues to be a significant challenge, impacting millions who rely on secure and personalized care. However, by leveraging ethical frameworks like those established by the ICMR and innovative data management systems, we can enhance healthcare delivery while safeguarding sensitive information.

This article emphasizes the importance of accountability, informed consent, and data security as foundational elements of AI integration in healthcare. With real-time health data and advanced tools, we can improve patient outcomes and reduce disparities in access to care across India. Moreover, the forthcoming Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP) is poised to strengthen this framework, ensuring patients have control over their data.

Non-Fungible Tokens for GI Tagged Artist and Artisans of India

Handicraft is a family activity their craft runs through generations. Statistics and study by the UN stated that over the past 30 years, the total number of Indian artisans has decreased by 30%. An understanding of Indian craft entails insight into the current scenario marked by a loss of demand, dwindling skills, difficulty in catering to new markets, and rural artisans increasingly moving to urban areas looking for often low, unskilled unemployment. The average income of Indian artisans is 2000 INR for a family of five, it is a matter of serious concern, artisans are exploited and underpaid workers of rural India. The handicraft industry is one of the worst-hit industries of India during the pandemic, most of the heads of artisan families don’t see a future in their work, so they are encouraging their offspring to discontinue their work, they have stopped training their children. India is on the verge of losing its rich cultural heritage. To solve this problem, An End-To-End, B2B solution based on Blockchain financial Technology that allows GI tagged Artists to allow Businesses to procure and use their IP as a product or create new products by using their IP. The ‘Global Artisans’ platform will allow GI Artists to declare availability of their unique IP art/designs via creating a Non-Transferable-NFT or a Creator-NFT. This will permanently tag the NFT Creator and proprietary owner as the respective GI Artist. Businesses can ‘mint’ (buy) copy of an IP in form of a License-NFT which allows the Businesses to utilize these NFTs and produce products using one or more such NFT designs on their Physical products. The license to use the Creator-NFT (Artist’s IP) can only be ‘minted’ (bought) using a Crypto ‘Heritage’ coin. Businesses must pre-pay a fee to govt as well as to the Artist IP for minting ‘License-NFT’. Then after once the Businesses export or sell the goods, they must scan the QR code to Artist’s crypto account and pay the remaining amount owed to the Creator-NFT. The Heritage coin going back to creator Artist is then burned/destroyed automatically and Artist’s linked Bank Account is credited with Indian Rupee Currency as payment for their NFT being licensed. The Creator Artist can view the Audit trail of who used their NFTs and who it was sold to, making the supply chain transparent. The key features of this technology are that Artisans will be paid on each sale and re-sale, they will get global recognition, and this solution will enable tracking of the original artwork. Along with artisan’s revenue, streams will open for the government.
