Teams developing indigenous AI model to receive funding soon: Govt
“The evaluation of the AI large language models (LLM) applications is in its final stage. Within the next few weeks, we should be able to award the first few LLM model teams which then will start getting the funding under the AI mission,” Vaishnaw said during the sidelines of an event here.
He said the government had been receiving a strong response for the second tranche of the GPU empanelment process.
“As you know, after the first 14,000 graphics processing units (GPUs) that we got as a part of the AI mission, the empanelment process for the second tranche is on and we are getting equally good response it. This means that our startup community, our AI researchers will get a very large GPU compute facility in coming days,” Vaishnaw added.
Additionally, Vaishnaw informed that a number of industries had started creating AI applications and many of them had been recognised by the IndiaAI mission.
“A large number of industries have started creating AI applications. My interaction with education, healthcare and industrial organisations shows that people are adapting AI in a very big way for multiple uses. So that’s a very positive thing and that also means we will be able to get the most productive advantage out of this AI revolution,” he said.
