CCI Invites Bids for Market Study on Artificial Intelligence’s Impact on Competition
The Competition Commission of India (CCI) has invited bids for a market study to examine the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on competition in the Indian market. The study will delve into both the positive and negative implications of AI on market dynamics.
The study is part of CCI’s advocacy efforts and aims to provide a valuable resource for industry stakeholders and policymakers. CCI has previously conducted similar studies across various sectors, including mining, e-commerce, and film distribution, leading to key market insights and anti-competitive practices identification.
This particular study on AI coincides with the government’s efforts to establish a forward-looking regulatory framework for large digital economy firms. CCI emphasizes that the study will enhance understanding of the AI ecosystem and its impact on competition in India.
The study will explore the transformative capabilities of AI, its potential pro-competitive effects, as well as competition concerns associated with its usage. It will also examine the implications of AI applications for competition, efficiency, and innovation in key user industries.
