Medianama, an Indian publication focused on technology discourse, is organizing a roundtable discussion on the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in spam prevention. The event is scheduled to take place in New Delhi on Wednesday, August 12, 2026. The discussion aims to delve into the policy, technical, and operational aspects of AI-driven spam detection systems.
The discussion will center on the regulatory landscape in India, particularly the directives issued by the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) concerning AI-based spam data sharing by telecom operators. It will also explore the integration of AI in various communication platforms, including Rich Communication Services (RCS) and Over-The-Top (OTT) messaging services.
Prepared reading materials highlight TRAI's previous enforcement actions against telemarketers and the evolving regulatory framework. The agenda also includes discussions on how AI systems identify spam, potential issues with false positives affecting legitimate communications, and the convergence of fraud and cybercrime with spam activities.
