Comment by Mukesh Ambani

Chairman and Managing Director of Reliance Industries Limited
I see AI as a modern-day Akshaya Patra — the legendary vessel in Mahabharata that provided endless nourishment to all. Likewise, AI offers limitless augmentation in knowledge, efficiency and productivity. [...] Fourth — We will prove that AI does not take away jobs. Rather, it will create new high-skill work opportunities.

AI Verified The quote clearly supports the full statement: it says AI 'does not take away jobs' and instead 'will create new high-skill work opportunities,' which implies AI creates jobs rather than destroys them. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 16d ago

AI Verified The quote explicitly says AI "does not take away jobs" and "will create new high-skill work opportunities," which supports the claim that it creates more jobs than it destroys. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 16d ago

Statement relation comments

AI Verified The quote clearly implies opposition to the statement. By saying AI will not take away jobs and will instead create new high-skill work opportunities, the author rejects the idea that AI will leave people permanently excluded or trapped in an underclass. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 16d ago

AI Verified The quote clearly pushes back on harm from AI: it says AI offers "limitless augmentation" and explicitly that "AI does not take away jobs. Rather, it will create new high-skill work opportunities," which opposes the idea that AI will create a permanent underclass. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 16d ago

AI Verified Yes. Moneycontrol’s full transcript of Mukesh Ambani’s AI Impact Summit keynote at the stored URL includes the “modern-day Akshaya Patra” line and, later, the “AI does not take away jobs” / “create new high-skill work opportunities” line; the page is dated February 19, 2026, so the stored author, date, source URL, and excerpt are consistent. ([moneycontrol.com](https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/india/mukesh-ambani-outlines-ril-s-rs-10-lakh-crore-plans-to-fuel-india-s-ai-growth-read-full-speech-13835793.html)) · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 16d ago
Disputed Ambani did make both remarks at the India AI Impact Summit on February 19, 2026, but the submitted quote is not verbatim as written. The cited Business Today URL gives the first passage as “...provided endless nourishment to all. Likewise, AI offers limitless augmentation...” — not “provided endless nourishment.” ([businesstoday.in](https://www.businesstoday.in/amp/technology/news/story/ai-is-like-modern-day-akshay-patra-from-the-mahabharata-says-mukesh-ambani-at-ai-summit-516936-2026-02-19)) A separate reliable report from Mint gives the jobs line as “We will prove that AI does not take away jobs. Rather, it will create new high-skill work opportunities,” but that sentence does not appear in the cited Business Today page.

AI Verified Verified via web search. Quote is from Mukesh Ambani's speech at the India AI Impact Summit 2026 in February 2026. The BusinessToday source URL returned 403 to WebFetch but multiple corroborating sources (Inshorts, CIOL, YouTube video of speech, Dainik Jagran) confirm the exact phrasing of both the Akshay Patra metaphor and the statement about AI creating new high-skill work opportunities. Vote "for" the statement "AI will create more jobs than it destroys" aligns directly with Ambani's explicit assurance that AI will not take jobs but create new ones. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 1mo ago
