Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) Chairman Mukesh D Ambani on Monday said that Jio Platforms will now focus its efforts on “India-specific artificial intelligence (AI) models and AI-powered solutions across domains”.
“Jio promises AI to everyone, everywhere,” Ambani said while addressing the shareholders virtually at the company’s Annual General Meeting. “To stay globally competitive, India must harness AI for innovation, growth, and national prosperity.”
Ambani said RIL is rapidly augmenting its talent pool and capabilities to “swiftly assimilate the latest global innovations in AI”, especially the recent advances in generative AI.
“Jio Platforms wants to lead the effort in developing India-specific AI models and AI-powered solutions across domains, thereby delivering the benefit
of AI to Indian citizens, businesses and government alike,” he said.
Ambani said India has the scale and data but lacks the necessary digital infrastructure to handle AI’s computational demands, a gap Jio Platforms intends to fill. “As this sector expands, we stand committed to creating up to 2000 MW of AI-read ready computing capacity, across both Cloud and Edge locations. And we will do this while adopting sustainable practices and a greener future,” he said.
