Swecha to develop Telugu language-centric Large Language Models
The HinduSwecha, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting free software and free knowledge movements, announced an internship programme on Artificial Intelligence for engineering students to equip and make them job-ready with AI skills, while aiding Swecha to develop Telugu language-centric Large Language Models. The project “Summer of AI” attempts to combine the two objectives — a large-scale internship programme for first and second-year engineering students, trained in the basics of AI and then engaged in very large-scale data collection through interviews. The project aims to interview people in the villages and towns and collect information and knowledge on various folks, local skills and information, which includes Telugu folk tales, songs, food, local and more. Upon successful completion of this project, a similar approach will be adopted to collect data for other languages and regions also.
