What do you think of India's IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw comparing the Indian government's efforts to build a localised AI model to sending a mission to the moon at a fraction of the cost?

Does India have critical areas that need AI models?

Ashwin talked of the Moon mission being at a fraction of the cost but did he also talk of the objectives of the various moon missions of other countries?

For one thing, moon travel is not a commercial thing and the benefits of moon travel are primarily futuristic and at a level which cannot be immediately monetized

Didn't the States put living people on the moon?

Developing a Multimodal AI means challenging a 500 Billion dollar to possibly 1 Trillion dollar worth of investments made by the Big 5 Companies in the States - Google, Meta, Amazon, Oracle and Microsoft

Was that a comparable argument ?

A second point is - the Moon Mission was inexpensive because it was extremely basic

According to the prediction of Mr. Huang, the founder of Nvidia, humanoid AI robots will flood all over the world in the future, so will there be many robots on the earth while there will be fewer and fewer humans?

So i doubt India ruffled any feathers with a moon mission

So if you translate his speech, is he saying India would create a low cost AI model which will fulfil some very basic objectives and not be anywhere near the level of the latest versions of GPT or Deepseek?

Does India have the necessary AI Talent?

What do you do when you are struggling to fall asleep?

A Maruti 800 and a Ferrari both transport people from one point to another but their entire purpose is extremely different is it not?

Without any of this being discussed, Ashwin going directly to cost, seems a very untenable argument

Would you be able to tell me how either benefited the Indian population?

It is a strange argument

On the other hand, a mission to the moon, something already done by everyone else of consequence, is not something that would challenge anyone's interest in any way

Which genre of novels is most profitable to publish and why?

The only answer would be a possible advantage for ISRO, sometime in the distant future

Are there any industries or sectors where ChatGPT is particularly well-suited for implementation?

Didn't the Chinese ones bring some soil back?

India made a Maruti 800 that could take a trip between two places, at a lower cost that the States that had a Ferrari take the same trip long ago
