Attaullah Tarar believed that a worldwide organisation using artificial intelligence should verify all information before distribution so as to maintain reliable and fair communication systems. The minister declared Pakistan open to partnership building with worldwide media organisations, which would create transparent growth opportunities.
The minister declared that Pakistan’s dynamic media sector, encompassing news broadcasting, entertainment production, and film creation, is prepared for global alliances while providing an opportunity to showcase its diverse cultural heritage worldwide.
