The U.S. chip designer has proposed collaborating with India to co-develop a custom AI chip, leveraging the country’s strong chip design talent.
The discussions began during a meeting between Nvidia chief Jensen Huang and Prime Minister Narendra Modi earlier this year.
FirstPost reports that the collaboration, which is still in the early stages, seeks to design a chip tailored to specific use cases in India.
Officials are assessing costs, benefits, and potential applications with sectors such as the Indian Railways’ safety system, Kavach.
The custom AI chip could also support Indian startups, businesses, and public sector initiatives as part of the government’s AI mission.
Nvidia’s partnership with India could involve multiple players, with design partners like Arm Holdings plc (NASDAQ:ARM) or Advanced Micro Devices, Inc (NASDAQ:AMD) handling core architecture.
At the same time, Indian entities such as the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC) would customize the final layers for local applications.
Huang sees India as a crucial partner in the AI sector, emphasizing the importance of adding value to domestic resources rather than exporting raw data.
