Reliance is making its boldest leap yet into artificial intelligence. Backed by gigawatt-scale data centres, alliances with global giants like Nvidia, Google and Meta, and the unmatched power of data from 450 million Jio users, Mukesh Ambani wants to position India as an AI builder, not just a consumer. 

In this episode of The Morning Brief, host Anirban Chowdhury is joined by Neil Shah, co-founder of Counterpoint Research, and ET’s AI expert Himanshi Lohchab to decode what “Reliance Intelligence” really means. Can Ambani turn this vision into reality and build AI “for everyone, everywhere”? We dive into Reliance’s grand plans for cloud infrastructure, affordable AI services for small businesses, vernacular voice assistants, enterprise solutions, and even smart-city applications. Can India produce enough AI talent to power this ambition? Will execution challenges and global competition from AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud derail the vision? Or could this finally give India its own AI infrastructure and a credible homegrown alternative to U.S. tech giants?
