The company, a unit of Reliance Industries, is also thinking to launch an operating system for televisions.

Reliance Jio Infocomm, the telecom service provider, has partnered with the Indian Institute of Technology-Bombay for the development of 'Bharat GPT,' a large-language model customised for India's linguistic nuances as per the media reports.

Announcing this collaboration at the IIT's annual Techfest in Mumbai, chairman Akash Ambani highlighted the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) vertically within the organisation and horizontally across various sectors in the next decade.
