Centre opens portals to fuel India’s AI mission

Hindustan Times  

The Union government on Thursday launched two new platforms under its IndiaAI Mission: the IndiaAI Datasets Platform and the IndiaAI Compute Portal. IT secretary S Krishnan noted that unlike other countries, where most investments in AI had been made by private companies, in India, the government has invested in a “clear, focused program to implement nationwide adoption of AI through seven dedicated pillars.” He said that both the government and private sector will continue adding to the common computing capacity “at a cost that is significantly lower than anywhere else in the world.” The lowest bids for the different GPUs were already on average more than 40% below the market rate. On AIKosha, Meity has also outlined eight use cases demonstrating how different models and datasets on the platform can provide public services — such as the voice assistants for rural citizens to help understand dialects. The new iGOT AI will use domestically developed AI models to personalise course recommendations for civil servants based on their ministry, role, and title, said Adil Zainulbhai, chairperson of the government’s Capacity Building Commission. Principal Scientific Advisor Ajay Sood said that AI faces three main challenges — skills development, computing capacity, and quality datasets — which were addressed through Thursday’s announcements.
