At the event, Jio said it has built an indigenous AI platform, developed by Indian engineers for all Indians. JioBrain is a backend AI platform that enables AI capabilities, which can be consumed by any upstream application.
Any industry-agnostic application can leverage JioBrain’s capabilities to inherit AI functionalities. Jio has also developed certain applications based on JioBrain. One of them is JioAvatar, where you can take a photograph and create avatars. Another is Jio Code Assist, which developers can use as a productivity tool for automating coding tasks.
“There can be an ‘n’ number of other applications. JioBrain is a transformative platform that can be used to create multiple such applications,” a Jio executive explained.
AI in Education
Jio showcased its Embibe Lens App, an AI-powered educational tool, that redefines learning by enabling students to point their camera at textbooks, which the app then augments concepts with 3D models, videos, and virtual lab experiments. This innovation promises to transform traditional education methods.
In Jio’s words:
“Experience the future of learning with Embibe Lens, the cutting-edge AI-powered app. Unveiling a world of possibilities, Embibe Lens goes beyond the confines of traditional textbooks by harnessing the power of Artificial Intelligence,” Jio said.
No matter which book you’re studying, simply point the camera at the page and take a picture. The app automatically detects all the academic concepts present on that page.
Select any concept you want to study, and the app will load a 3D element directly on the page. Users can also access relevant 3D videos that enhance concept clarity and visualisation. Along with these videos, the app offers virtual activities and lab experiments related to the concept, which can be opened and explored, Jio personnel explained.
Jio has showcased AI for Education, which includes AI for Adaptive Learning and AI for Immersive Learning.
