What do you think of India's IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw comparing the Indian government's efforts to build a localised AI model to sending a mission to the moon at a fraction of the cost?

Developing a Multimodal AI means challenging a 500 Billion dollar to possibly 1 Trillion dollar worth of investments made by the Big 5 Companies in the States - Google, Meta, Amazon, Oracle and Microsoft

Would you be able to tell me how either benefited the Indian population?

Mars isn’t Red? The Planet is Actually… - The Daily Galaxy

The only answer would be a possible advantage for ISRO, sometime in the distant future

Was that a comparable argument ?

Didn't the Chinese ones bring some soil back?

What will the legacy of Jimmy Carter be in light of his death today at 100?

So the Minister gave an erroneous analogy which makes me wonder if he knows what he is talking about

I don't think the Big 5 Companies will take that lying down and may place a lot of obstacles in India's way

Didn't the States put living people on the moon?

Bacteria living in your gut may cause depression, not your brain, says a new study - Earth.com

It is a strange argument

On the other hand, a mission to the moon, something already done by everyone else of consequence, is not something that would challenge anyone's interest in any way

India made a Maruti 800 that could take a trip between two places, at a lower cost that the States that had a Ferrari take the same trip long ago

Can a bride cheat on her groom at a wedding?

Does India have the necessary set up in place?

Your Mars mission was also inexpensive because it was extremely basic

Now India has to make a Galardo and compete with a Ferrari made by the States and a Porsche made by China

Should I have left it alone and kept quiet? I came out as gay to my adult kids last week. Age 61 married 15 years, divorced for 20. I feel so guilty for ruining their lives by living a lie.

For one thing, moon travel is not a commercial thing and the benefits of moon travel are primarily futuristic and at a level which cannot be immediately monetized

A second point is - the Moon Mission was inexpensive because it was extremely basic

Does India have the necessary AI Talent?

Diabetes drug shows benefits for patients with liver disease - Medical Xpress

A Maruti 800 and a Ferrari both transport people from one point to another but their entire purpose is extremely different is it not?

The States and China, they did a lot more in Mars than India did in terms of exploration and study

Does India have critical areas that need AI models?

Is TikTok becoming a platform for soft porn?

Without any of this being discussed, Ashwin going directly to cost, seems a very untenable argument

Is it not an entirely different ball game?

So i doubt India ruffled any feathers with a moon mission

Why is fitness important?

Ashwin talked of the Moon mission being at a fraction of the cost but did he also talk of the objectives of the various moon missions of other countries?

So if you translate his speech, is he saying India would create a low cost AI model which will fulfil some very basic objectives and not be anywhere near the level of the latest versions of GPT or Deepseek?
