He asked schools to turn information in the age of artificial intelligence into knowledge and wisdom.

He said, "We hear about the IT revolution, AI and data every day, and we hear that this is the information age where information is freely available and accessible. But the job of a school like this is to create people who are able to look at information, turn that information into knowledge and even more importantly, behave with wisdom."

Meanwhile, on the Kerala High Court's decision to order a probe into the alleged sale of 'Adiya Sishtam Ghee' at Sabarimala, Sunny Joseph welcomed the decision and stated that the court's intervention was necessary to bring several such incidents to light.

"That is quite welcome. Without the High Court's intervention, many incidents that have taken place would not have been made public. High Court's intervention is welcome," he said. (ANI)
