Anita Gurumurthy approaches AI through power, rights and accountability. As founding member and executive director of IT for Change, she has spent years examining how digital systems affect labor, gender, public infrastructure and development, especially in the Global South.
Her work asks who gains power when data becomes central to economies and who remains excluded from its benefits. Across global forums and United Nations-linked processes, Gurumurthy has argued for technology governance rooted in public interest, rights and institutional accountability.
Her profile broadens the AI conversation beyond innovation and adoption, placing questions of equity, data value and democratic oversight at the center of India’s digital future.
