Of course, building a generative AI model from scratch requires a lot of effort. First it is necessary to build a foundation model of your own. India has the National Programme on Artificial Intelligence and it is working to build a generative AI model. India plans to build its own version of ChatGPT. It will be a large language model (LLM). India wants to make generative AI available as a digital public good on the lines Aadhar, UPI, Digilocker etc. to other countries.

The Ministry of Electronics and IT is organising the Global IndiaAI 2023 conference where a wide range of topics will be covered including Next Generation Learning and Foundational AI models, AI’s applications in healthcare, governance, and next generation electric vehicles, future AI research trends, AI computing systems, investment opportunities and nurturing AI talent.

The government is showcasing the AskGITA(Guidance, Inspiration, Transformation and Action) generative AI interface at G20 Summit. This model is just like ChatGPT and is based on GPT-4. This model will answer questions related to life, based on the feed from the holy Bhagwat Gita.

India has developed Bhashini, its digital repository of digital content in 22 Indian languages. India’s generative AI model will use Bhashini.

Private companies such as Amazon, Tech Mahindra, Infosys, TCS, Wipro, HCL and others too have announced generative AI models to benefit their customers. CoRover.AI, UK has announced its generative AI model BharatGPT which support 12 Indian languages and over 120 foreign languages, through text, and even video.
