The Indian Institute of Technology, Jodhpur, (IIT-J) announced the launch of the ‘Centre for next Generation AI Research – AINEXT’ and signed a memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Nvidia as a key technology and computing platform partner. 

On behalf of IITJ, Professor Santanu Chaudhury, Director, IITJ said, “Our institute is driven by its commitment to excel in next generation technology development and research. AI is now ubiquitous, and we must begin to entrust it with increasingly greater responsibility in AI’s expanding capabilities.”

This unique AINEXT centre will pioneer research to develop next generation of AI Systems, which will transform computers from tools into problem solving partners. The work that will be undertaken at IIT Jodhpur will enable AI systems to explain their actions and to acquire and understand and reason with common sense knowledge. 

The centre’s computing infrastructure will be built on the premise to scale out AI without scaling on the complexity like the Nvidia DGX-2 Systems, the world’s most powerful AI System for the most complex AI challenges, said institute officials. 

This unprecedented venture is targeted to accelerate the research and development of next generation AI systems to immerse AI in every field, every device in Healthcare, Agriculture, Public Safety, Social good, IOT among other sectors, Chaudhary said.
