    How AI Helps

                      AI-based Virtual Health Assistants are transforming healthcare by offering quick, personalised
                      and easy medical support to patients without the need to visit hospitals or clinics. These smart
                      systems help people manage their health more effectively and improve access to healthcare
                      services. Here’s how AI helps in this area:
                        AI technology can help patients remember to take their medicines at the correct time and
                         remind them about doctor appointments or follow-up check-ups. Today, many mobile health
                         applications use AI assistants to organise prescriptions, send medicine reminders and safely

                         maintain digital health records in an efficient manner.
                        AI-powered chatbots and virtual assistants can answer common health-related questions
                         instantly and provide basic guidance for minor health problems. The Government of Madhya

                         Pradesh  introduced  the  AI-based  SUMAN SAKHI chatbot  to  offer 24×7 health support  for
                         women. This chatbot provides useful information related to maternal healthcare, pregnancy
                         care and high-risk pregnancy conditions, especially for women living in remote areas.

                      AI and Intelligent Automation

                      Have you ever thought about how many everyday tasks are completed quickly and efficiently with
                      little effort from us? This is all thanks to AI and automation working together.
                      For example, in the past, washing machines needed manual adjustments to set the wash duration,

                      water level and cycle type based on the clothes being washed. But now, AI-powered washing
                      machines can automatically detect the load size, fabric type and how dirty the clothes are. They
                      adjust the amount of water, detergent and washing time based on these factors. This makes the
                      washing process more efficient, saves water and energy and reduces the need for human effort.

                      In India, AI-driven automation is being used in many different industries, including transportation,
                      agriculture, banking, healthcare and home appliances. Here are some of the key areas where AI
                      is helping:
                        Smart transportation: AI helps optimise traffic flow, reduce travel time and even power self-
                         driving cars. It makes transportation safer and more efficient.

                        Agriculture: AI is used to monitor crops, predict weather patterns and optimise irrigation. This
                         helps farmers make better decisions and increase crop yield.

                        Smart homes: In smart homes, AI-powered devices can control lighting, heating and security
                         systems automatically, making homes more energy-efficient and comfortable.
                      By integrating AI into daily life, we can make tasks easier, save resources and increase productivity

                      in various fields.

                      Smart Transportation

                      Busy roads and traffic jams are a regular part of life in many Indian cities. People waste a lot of
                      time stuck in traffic when they could be studying, playing or being with their families. At the same
                      time, traffic congestion releases more harmful pollutants into the air.
