Bharatiya GPT Celebrating the ‘Bharat Metaphor’

 

 

One Indian company from the heart of India—Nagpur and Silicon Valley, USA, ImmverseAI, is working on this mission to celebrate the rich prowess of Indic Wisdom which is thousands of years old. BharatiyaGPT is that metaphor that leverages bleeding edge generative AI to give an Indic response to Western bias that the global Large Language Model (LLM) has today. At the heart of BharatiyaGPT lies a Custom LLM, trained on an expansive 8 billion parameters. ImmverseAI has built a complete data pipeline from the ground up, collecting thousands of years old Indic manuscripts, digitising them, and training AI models on this digital data corpus, Contd from page 1 aggregating to over 50 terabytes and 10+ lakh manuscripts across 23 languages.

 

This linguistic diversity ensures BharatiyaGPT can resonate with and serve a broad spectrum of the Indian population and those interested in exploring Indic Wisdom. R Ramakrishnan, Co-Founder and CEO of ImmverseAI, 5x Entrepreneur, with 20+ years in building multiple ventures in India & USA, and scaling it to over 50+ countries, a Past President of TiE with his AI team of 100+, expressed his enthusiasm about the launch, stating, “BharatiyaGPT is not just another AI; it is an AI-infused tressure of the vast and diverse knowledge that India has contributed to the world, over millennia. By integrating this ancient wisdom into modern AI, we are not only immortalising our heritage but also offering the world an opportunity to learn from it.” ImmverseAI’s vision for BharatiyaGPT is not just to create another AI but to establish a global knowledge powerhouse grounded in India’s ancient wisdom and spiritual richness. Earlier this year, ImmverseAI was honoured for its creation of AI Avatars representing iconic Maharishis, with Padma Vibhushan Dr Vijay Bhatkar, Dr Kasturirangan, Dr E Sreedharan, and Dr Anil Kakodkar receiving special recognition. ImmverseAI was the only Indian startup invited to the Global Partnership on Artificial Intelligence (GPAI) to showcase its technological capabilities to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, alongside global tech giants like Google, Meta, and Microsoft. ImmverseAI was also awarded the ‘Best Use of Conversational AI’ at the Global AI Summit and Awards 2024 (GAISA).

 

 

India’s rich legacy of scientific discoveries, mathematical insights, architectural wonders, and cosmic knowledge has been eroded over time. BharatiyaGPT’s mission is to infuse AI into this ancient Indic Wisdom and preserve it for future generations. A major focus of BharatiyaGPT is addressing the biases prevalent in current AI systems, which often reflect Western perspectives. By integrating diverse cultural narratives from Indian civilization, BharatiyaGPT aims to offer a more balanced and inclusive worldview. This approach is vital in a globalized world where cultural sensitivity is increasingly important. BharatiyaGPT’s deep engagement with Indian culture enables it to challenge and expand the conventional knowledge paradigms of AI. For instance, while other AI models credit John Dalton with the discovery of the atom, BharatiyaGPT acknowledges Rishi Kanad’s early conceptualization of atomic theory in ancient India, through the classic timeless treatise ‘Vaisheshika Sutra’ which explains the concept of ‘Anu, Renu and Paramanu’ some 2000 years ago, which then became the foundation for the modern sciencists like John Dalton, JJ. Thomson and Ernst Rutherford to come up with a refined version of ‘The Atomic Theory’ in the 19 th century.

 

At the same time, ‘Vaimanika Shastram’, attributed to Maharshi Bharadwaja, is a 10th-century Sanskrit text detailing principles of flight and aircraft design. Shivkar Bapuji Talpade, influenced by this text, is credited with building an airplane in 1895 and successfully flying it in the shores of ‘Chowpaty’ in Mumbai. While the authenticity and scientific accuracy of the Vaimanika Shastram remain debated by ChatGPT and Gemini, which is trained on western data. By highlighting such contributions, BharatiyaGPT enriches the AI discourse and promotes a more equitable representation of global cultures. As Prime Minister Narendra Modi famously remarked, “Not just ‘Aai’ (Mother), but now Indian kids are saying ‘AI’ as their first word” ImmverseAI is committed to contributing with their groundbreaking AI solutions.
