India goes for Guinness World Records with 24-hour AI pledge drive at India AI Impact Summit 2026

The initiative will seek an official Guinness World Records title for the highest number of pledges secured within 24 hours for an AI responsibility campaign.

The campaign aims to mobilise citizens across the country to commit to the ethical, inclusive and responsible use of Artificial Intelligence, reinforcing India’s commitment to building a trustworthy and human-centric AI ecosystem.

The digital pledge platform will be accessible at: http://aipledge.indiaai.gov.in/

Designed as an interactive, awareness-driven experience, the initiative features scenario-based questions that encourage participants to reflect on responsible AI practices before formally taking the pledge. Upon completion, participants will receive a digital honorary badge jointly issued by IndiaAI and Intel India, along with access to curated, government-led AI learning pathways, according to an official statement.

Structured for accessibility and ease of participation across regions and demographics, the campaign does not require microphone or camera access, and there are no qualifying marks or eligibility barriers.
