For about 16 years, Grammarly has been a popular tool among students and professionals for grammar checks and writing suggestions. With the rise of AI, the company is now steering into new territory, one it believes will transform how people write, learn…

AI has long faced challenges around trust. Vector search can find documents that look similar, but it often fails when connections between entities matter most. Graph-based Retrieval Augmented Generation, or GraphRAG, is emerging as a way to fix this by combining…

When Prime Minister Narendra Modi called semiconductors as the future in his Independence Day address, it was more than symbolism.  He said that India’s early attempts to establish semiconductor factories nearly five to six decades ago were, as many experts…

The surge of AI agents is not only reshaping industries but also redefining job titles. Much like cloud computing gave birth to DevOps, the age of agentic AI is giving rise to new specialisations such as agent architects, agent orchestrators, and forward…

In less than a year, the IndiaAI Mission has turned into one of the largest GPU programmes. More than 34,000 GPUs are already empanelled, four times the original 10,000 target. Another 6,000 are in the pipeline, bringing the total to nearly 40,000 GPUs. The…

Antibiotic resistance — the “silent pandemic” — caused nearly five million deaths worldwide in 2019. At IIT Madras, researchers are tackling this crisis with a chip that can test bacterial resistance in hours instead of days. The device, called ε-µD, can…

Artificial Intelligence now influences decisions across sectors, but not all decisions carry the same weight. A chatbot’s casual error may be forgivable. In finance or healthcare, however, a single wrong prediction can cost billions, or even a life.  This…

AI is headed to be the cornerstone of digital transformation worldwide. But, India faces a pressing question: invest in building its own foundational AI models or continue adapting global ones for local use? The debate revolves around sovereignty, cost, innovation…

Stories have been the lifeblood of human civilisations. From cave paintings to cinema screens to shorts and reels, each era has found new ways to tell them. With the advent of generative AI, imagination is no longer limited by production barriers when it…

Text-to-speech-based generative models have propelled the industry towards faster and more efficient consumer engagement and hiring. Yet, replicating human tone, emotion, and subtlety remains far off. Voice AI holds a unique promise, but complexities as well. …

Generative AI is evolving beyond the race for larger models, focusing on sovereignty, data ownership, and cultural alignment. For India, where multilingual diversity defines daily life, the challenge lies in building AI that reflects these realities while…
