Chipmaker Nvidia and Reliance Industries on 8 September announced their collaboration to develop India’s own foundation large language model trained on India’s diverse languages and tailored for generative AI applications to serve the country.

Nvidia will provide Reliance access to its most advanced and powerful GH200 Grace Hopper Superchip and Nvidia DGX Cloud, an AI supercomputing service in the cloud.

Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of Nvidia, said, “With the most advanced AI computing infrastructure, Reliance can build its own large language models that power generative AI applications made in India, for the people of India,”

Mukesh Ambani, Chairman and Managing Director of Reliance Industries, said, “As India advances from a country of data proliferation to creating technology infrastructure for widespread and accelerated growth, computing and technology super centres like the one we envisage with Nvidia will provide the catalytic growth just like Jio did to our nation’s digital march.”

The company added that Jio will manage the execution and implementation and has many offerings across India, such as mobile telephony, fibre networks, 5G spectrum, and more.

The partnership will also serve towards the company’s strategy of serving as a large, comprehensive digital, cloud, and networking platform for both businesses and consumers.
