Reliance Collaboration with Nvidia

Mukesh Ambani is reportedly said to be purchasing AI semiconductors from Nvidia. During the Nvidia AI Summit 2024, Reliance and Nvidia announced their collaboration to develop AI infrastructure in India. Nvidia will supply its state-of-the-art Blackwell AI processors for a one-gigawatt data center, highlighting the scale of the initiative. The companies also plan to create large language models (LLMs) designed for India’s diverse languages, furthering AI inclusivity in the country, TelecomTalk previously reported.

“It makes complete sense that India should manufacture its own AI. You should not export data to import intelligence. India should not export flour to import bread,” said Jensen Huang while in conversation with the Reliance Chairman during the summit.
