India is set to unveil its first wave of indigenous foundational AI models at the India AI Impact Summit this February 15-20. Startups like Sarvam AI and Gnani.ai are debuting models ranging from 14B to 70B parameters, specifically engineered for India’s 22 languages and emotionally intelligent voice tasks. Backed by the 10,000 crore IndiaAI Mission, these innovations mark a transition to a sovereign AI infrastructure designed for population-scale impact. This strategic shift ensures digital resilience for 1.4 billion citizens while reducing reliance on Western LLMs. 🚀🇮🇳
