It outlines the proposed efforts in research, development, adoption and skilling in AI. Apart from this, the paper ‘AIRAWAT: An AI Specific Cloud Compute Infrastructure’ — released earlier this year proposes the design, administration structure, and component of choosing different partners to boost AI.
