Reliance Jio

Google is partnering with Reliance Jio to offer its Gemini AI service to over 500 million Indian subscribers, marking a significant stride in India’s AI race. The collaboration, valued at approximately $396 per user initially, will prioritize early access for young users with Jio 5G plans. This move follows similar initiatives by Airtel with Perplexity and OpenAI offering ChatGPT Go free for a year highlighting India’s growing importance for AI companies. The competition is expected to drive down prices and increase access to AI technologies.
