Under the Industry 4.0, the Science, Innovation, and Technology are the main ‘conditions for full employment’ and Economic Development which is an imperative goal of every National Government. Generative AI and Machine Learning, IoTs, Cloud and Edge computing, Decentralised Finance (DeFi), Sustainable technology, Cybersecurity, Blockchain, Big data, Datafication, Robotics and Robotic Process Automation (RPA), Natural language processing, Drones, 3D Printing, Genomics, Metaverse, Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR) and Extended Reality (ER), 5G,and Full Stack Development etc are changing human behaviour and activities. Among these, the rise of the AI and ML technologies have led to an unprecedented level of automation. AI allows computers to learn and solve problems mimicking human cognition and behaviour. This research explores the ‘dual’ impact of AI on economy and society that requires appropriate balance of regulation and governance for which the national governments and policy makers, universities, and the industry need to work together for maximising the benefits of the AI.
