Ola’s Bhavish Aggarwal Questions Future of Social Media in Walled Gardens, Envisions UPI-like DPI
The enormous power of more advanced AI systems might remain concentrated in the hands of a small number of companies or even individuals.

Aggarwal aims to build an Indian social media framework, alongside moving Ola’s workload out of Azure, and offers free cloud usage for developers leaving Azure.
“It costs us nothing to be inclusive. If it can help someone with their identity without causing anyone harm, what’s the problem? Don’t get it”
Krutrim has been working closely with the Databricks team to pre-train and fine-tune their foundational LLM.
The only saving grace for Krutrim so far is that it is still in beta version.
This is the first of several India-specific models trained by Ola Krutrim, delivering text infused with Indian sensibilities and cultural awareness.
“Better to send this illness back to where it came from. Our culture has always had respect for all. No need for new pronouns.”
To be honest, most Indian AI startups are two years behind OpenAI.
NVIDIA GPUs are anticipated to enter the Indian market post the Lok Sabha elections.
The company has also launched an Android app for Krutrim.
In the interim, Ola founder Bhavish Aggarwal will take over operations until a new executive is appointed.
The app comes with significant advancements, including a notable decrease in the Time it Takes to Generate the First word of a response (TTFT), from 22 seconds at its initial launch to a swift 0.3 seconds.
Krutrim is currently pre-training a larger foundational model on an Intel Gaudi 2 cluster, further advancing its AI capabilities.
“Krutrim took a risk to be one of the first with a native model, but more work is needed…,” says Databricks generative AI head.
It also powers the Primebook brand of affordable laptops.
Though we need foundational research in AI, experts believe that a lot of solutions only require working with already-built models.
India has already demonstrated its prowess in constructing open-source networks and architectures through its Digital Public Goods like UPI, DigiLocker and Aadhaar.
While acknowledging the possibility of some hallucinations, Bhavish Aggarwal assures users that the occurrence will be lower in Indian contexts compared to other global platforms.
Aggarwal shared that the fellowship program will commence with a focus on AI researchers at IIT Bombay.
The funding round was led by prominent investors including Matrix Partners India.
While layoffs are likely to continue, we decided to go against the grain and find you some lucrative jobs in generative AI.
