"Technology is not being used effectively to improve the quality of life. The Life expectancy has declined in the US," Professor Paul Romer, Economist and Nobel Laureate said at NDTV World Summit 2024. "Government has an important role to function as a Regulator to effectively utilize technology for public good," he added.

Further lauding India for introducing Unified Payment Interface (UPI), he said, "The government in India was happy to make apps (like UPI). It did not happen in the US. People in India can see how because of the government's technological and digital intervention, their lives have become better."
