India plans to offer GPUs from Nvidia to startups, academic institutions, and researchers at a subsidized rate under its AI Mission worth Rs 10,000 crore.
Two options are being explored: a 'rent-and-sublet' model where Ministry acquires GPUs, and a marketplace model where companies strike deals with suppliers, incentivized for productivity.
Nvidia's dominance in the GPU market makes it the natural choice for the Indian government, potentially boosting the AI sector with advanced technology.
Consultations are ongoing to find the best solutions as GPUs are scarce globally, ensuring no country receives priority access due to federal structure.
