When AI is anchored in real business or societal challenges, guided by strong ownership, and built on robust data and governance, scale is not just achievable, it's measurable. It was a proud moment to receive the @wef MINDS award at the AI Spotlight Reception yesterday on behalf of @tech_mahindra, at an evening aptly themed “proof over promise.” A big shout-out to our incredible #MakersLab team, @nickmalhotra, and congratulations to all TechMighties driving our vision forward through #ProjectIndus, our endeavour to build a sovereign LLM.

A historic milestone for @tech_mahindra! Our Chief Innovation Officer & Head of AI, Nikhil Malhotra, joined an elite group of industry leaders in an extraordinary meeting with Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji ahead of the India AI Impact Summit 2026, and presented #ProjectIndus - India’s foundational LLM, now being enhanced to revolutionize education. The PM’s vision was clear: India must lead as a producer of #AI for the world. He highlighted AI’s role in driving societal transformation and noted India’s immense capacity for #innovation and large-scale implementation. The Prime Minister urged the creation of a unique AI model that reflects the spirit of “Made in India, Made for the World,” and emphasized building ethical, unbiased, and privacy-centric AI rooted in our languages and culture, inspiring us to push boundaries and deliver technology that truly represents India on the global stage. We are proud to be part of this transformative movement, shaping the future of AI and innovation from India to the globe. 🌍🇮🇳 #ScaleAtSpeed #ProjectIndus #Leadership #BrandForPurpose #LLM #IndiaAIMission

A wonderful testament to the power of collaboration and a strong validation of what democratized technologies can help us achieve. With #Projectindus, our aim has been to preserve India's rich language diversity and ensure language accessibility. This is a great example of what partnerships like the one we have with @intel can enable to drive transformation together.

Glad to see this baby come of age.. #ProjectIndus Goes on to show we don't need more LLMs or AI models.. we need an LLM that gives users more potential, more possibilities, more capabilities, more competence.. that they thought were unlikely until not long ago..

Proud to see @tech_mahindra’s Makers Lab advancing #ProjectIndus—an AI-powered initiative bridging India’s language gap. With @Intel’s partnership, it’s making AI accessible to small businesses & individuals, driving inclusive growth. Kudos to the team for this remarkable feat! #TogetherWeRise

Rencontrez Project Indus, l'initiative révolutionnaire de Tech Mahindra qui utilise l'IA pour créer un modèle d'apprentissage des langues complet. Ce projet innovant vise à comprendre et à interpréter la riche diversité des langues et des dialectes parlés à travers l'Inde #ProjectIndus #TechMahindra #IA #LanguesIndiennes" Meet Project Indus, Tech Mahindra's groundbreaking initiative leveraging AI to create a comprehensive Language Learning Model. This innovative project aims to understand and interpret the rich tapestry of languages and dialects spoken across India.

This ecommerce company managed to cut 75% costs of customer support by combining existing LLMs with custom-built AI code that recognizes local context and language nuances. techcrunch.com/2024/11/26/ai… This was precisely my aim and thinking behind initiating #ProjectIndus at Tech Mahindra -- to "democratize" the use of AI and LLMs to benefit all local and regional players, whatever their industry, whether they're small businesses or giants.

The age of scaling up AI models infinitely by throwing money, computing power and data at them is over. reuters.com/technology/artif… Bigger LLMs don't necessarily offer proportional benefits or outcomes.. Scaling and tweaking the "right" moving parts is more important.. This was our approach behind building #ProjectIndus - India's first significant scalable LLM - during my time at @tech_mahindra
