Aayush Bhatnagar, Senior Vice President at Jio, revealed the launch of Jio Brain by Jio Platforms, positioned as the “Industry’s first 5G-integrated ML platform. Jio Brain aims to empower telecom networks, enterprise networks, and industry-specific IT environments to seamlessly incorporate ML tools into their day-to-day operations.

The cloud-native platform boasts over 500 REST APIs and data APIs, providing companies with the flexibility to craft tailored ML services according to their specific requirements.

A culmination of two years of intensive research involving hundreds of engineers, Jio Brain introduces an enterprise and mobile-ready LLM-as-a-service feature, allowing clients to harness generative AI capabilities. 

Bhatnagar emphasised the transformative potential of Jio Brain, stating, “Jio Brain will help create new 5G services, transform enterprises, optimise networks, as well as set the stage for 6G development – where ML is a key capability.”

The services will include AI capabilities for images, videos, text, documents, and speech, a cloud-native solution with plug-and-play architecture, data integration functionalities, and multiple AI/ML embedded mobile and web applications.

Enterprises can leverage Jio Brain for natural language processing (NLP) and AI generation tasks, spanning image-to-video generation, text-to-music generation, text-to-image and video generation, speech-to-speech translation, speech-to-text translation, and more. 

For coding purposes, the platform facilitates code generation, explanation, optimisation, and debugging. Additionally, Jio Brain encompasses core ML capabilities such as ML chaining, hyperparameter tuning, feature engineering, and more, which can be utilised collectively or as standalone services.

Despite the comprehensive unveiling, Jio has not disclosed a specific launch date for Jio Brain. The company expressed openness to collaboration with AI and ML researchers, aiming to scale up the platform and enhance its value proposition.

Recently, Akash Ambani, the chair of Jio also announced that it is partnering with IIT Bombay for the BharatGPT initiative. This is also after the announcement that Reliance is partnering with NVIDIA for utilising GH200 GPUs for building AI models in India.
