AI Kosh will be used to give startups approvals to access India AI Mission's 18,693 GPUs
India unveiled its library of non-personal data sets, called AI Kosh, to help companies build large language models (LLMs), the latest step by the Centre to help scale up the growth of artificial intelligence (AI) in the country.
AI Kosh will also be used to give startups approvals to get access to the India AI Mission's 18,693 GPUs, or graphic processing units, which will be offered at a subsidized fee, said the ministry of electronics and information technology (Meity) on Thursday.
At the same time, said Union IT minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, "extensive stakeholder consultations" have begun to build "India's own GPUs"—a process that he said will take "three to four years". "Building GPUs is a very, very difficult process, but we'll get there. We'll share more details in due time, as we make progress."
