AI Kosha and GPU Access Portal

Context

The Ministry of Electronics and IT (MeitY) has launched AI Kosha, a platform that provides non-personal datasets to startups and researchers. This will help them develop AI technologies like large language models (LLMs). Additionally, the government has introduced the IndiaAI Compute Portal, which gives access to powerful GPUs (graphics processing units) needed for AI research.

What is AI Kosha?

  • AIKosha or IndiaAI Datasets Platform (IDP) is a platform that will provide computing, datasets, tools, and a secure sandbox environment to India's researchers, entrepreneurs, and startups, helping them build state-of-the-art AI applications and solutions.
  • In simple terms, the IDP is a repository where people can find a variety of datasets, models, and examples to support AI innovation.
  • It also includes tools and tutorials in a development environment called an AI sandbox.
  • AI Kosha is part of the IndiaAI Mission, which aims to support AI development in India.
  • The platform will initially offer data from government ministries, with more datasets added over time.
  • The IndiaAI Compute Portal will allow researchers to use high-performance GPUs from companies like NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, and AWS.

IndiaAI Mission

  • The IndiaAI Mission, approved in March 2024, is a landmark initiative dedicated to fortifying India’s AI ecosystem through strategic programs and partnerships spanning both public and private sectors.
  • With a vision to democratize AI access, enhance data quality, cultivate indigenous AI capabilities, and ensure ethical AI practices, the Mission is structured around seven core pillars:
    • IndiaAI Compute
    • IndiaAI Datasets Platform
    • IndiaAI Application Development Initiatives
    • IndiaAI FutureSkills
    • IndiaAI Innovation Center
