By MYBRANDBOOK
Tech giant Google has unveiled a range of tools, programmes, and partnerships to empower Indian developers and startups to be at the forefront of the global artificial intelligence (AI) revolution at the Google I/O Connect Bengaluru 2024 event. The company shared that it is working with MeitY Startup Hub to train 10,000 startups in AI. It is expanding access to its AI models like Gemini and Gemma.
Google is also introducing new language tools from Google DeepMind India and enhancing software development with AI-powered features, with a focus on responsible AI. As part of its Gemini, the company is focused on bringing the power of multimodality to everyone and is expanding the types of questions one can ask with advances in long context windows.
Today, more than 1.5 million developers globally use Gemini models across its tools. The fastest way to build with Gemini is through its developer platform Google AI Studio.
India notably has one of the largest developer bases on Google AI Studio today.
“At Google, we've been investing in AI for over a decade, driving fundamental advancements that have led us to the exciting Gemini era. AI is a powerful enabler and a major inflection point that will require us to continuously reimagine what's possible,” said Ambharish Kenghe, vice-president, Google.
“We're committed to empowering Indian innovators to harness AI's full potential, creating solutions that not only address India's unique needs but also shape the future of AI globally. The opportunities with multimodal, mobile, and multilingual AI are immense,” Kenghe added.
Google said it is democratising AI for Indian developers by focusing on three key areas with transformative potential in India — multimodal, multilingual, and mobile.
The company is working with MeitY Startup Hub to support 10,000 Indian startups in their AI journey, through Google Cloud credits, AI-first programming curriculum, and launch of a nationwide GenAI Hackathon and AI Startup Bootcamp.
