Two demands placed before the government
From the platform of India Mobile Congress (IMC) 2024, the Chairman of Jio put forth his two demands before the government and said that India should be self-reliant regarding AI and work on data center policy in India itself for Indian users. In his suggestion to the government, Akash Ambani said that the scale and speed of data generation in India has increased rapidly and through AI it will increase even faster. Therefore there is a need to establish AI and machine learning data centers in India. Additionally, Ambani has also requested the government to update the Data Center Policy 2020.
On behalf of Jio, Akash Ambani has promised at the India Mobile Congress that the telecom company will not only be a leader in mobile innovation in India but will also embrace the power of AI for a connected intelligent future. This will lead to an increase in employment, as happened after the advent of computers and the Internet.
