Project Indus 2.0 caters to diverse sectors, including retail, banking, healthcare, and citizen services, in India. It stands out as a state-of-the-art LLM that advances Hindi and dialect conversations. In the future, Indus 2.0 aims to include agentic workflows and support multiple dialects to provide a more nuanced and effective AI solution tailored to India's diverse linguistic and cultural landscape. Atul Soneja, Chief Operating Officer, Tech Mahindra, said, "At Tech Mahindra, we are redefining the boundaries of AI innovation. Collaborating with NVIDIA, we are setting a new benchmark for enterprise-grade AI development by seamlessly integrating GenAI, industrial AI and sovereign large language models into the heart of global enterprises and industries."
