By 2025, India intends to introduce AI to compete with ChatGPT and DeepSeek

In order to compete with DeepSeek and ChatGPT, two of the most well-known virtual assistants available today, the Indian government has declared its plan to create an AI model. The basic framework for this new model is already in place, and it will be ready by the end of 2025, according to Ashwini Vaishnava, the minister of electronics and information technology.
The program is a component of a larger initiative by the government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, which has authorized 18 proposals to speed up AI solutions in important areas like climate change and agriculture. The support includes access to computing power, data, and financing, underscoring the importance the government places on technology for the country’s economic development.

According to a recent Bloomberg story, India intends to construct what might end up being the biggest data center in the world in Jamnagar, Gujarat. With a three gigawatt total capacity, the data center will establish India as a significant player in the field of advanced technological capabilities. The biggest data centers in use today, with capacities under one gigawatt, are mostly located in the United States.
Vaishnau’s remarks come shortly after the DeepSeek AI model gained international attention by overtaking ChatGPT in popularity on the Apple App Store. The development has led analysts to believe that AI innovation does not necessarily require huge capital investments, which could signal a change in the way technological advancements are achieved globally.
