Attempt This Question
Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (b) 1, 3 and 4 only
As recognised by the official UPSC 2020 key, AI was already effectively used to lower industrial power consumption (e.g., DeepMind for data-centres), diagnose diseases, and perform high-quality text-to-speech conversion (Statements 1, 3, 4). Generating truly ‘meaningful’ creative works (2) and enabling wireless power transmission (5) were not yet considered reliably achievable, so option B (1, 3 and 4 only) is correct.
