Bhashini bridging digital divide with multilingual support, says CEO

India’s language database platform, Bhashini is working on collecting datasets in regional languages, which is essential to bridge digital divide and gaps in terms of technology, Amitabh Nag, chief executive officer of Bhashini, told FE.

This assumes significance as currently large-language models (LLMs) are mostly restricted to the English language, to train generative AI models. With Bhashini investing to collect data in regional languages, the government will be able to provide generative AI services to people in their own dialects.
