The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay on Thursday said it has inked an agreement with the US-based Columbia University to establish a centre of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for manufacturing. This is a joint research and translation centre aimed at building robust, scalable and human-centric AI systems for real-world manufacturing, IIT Bombay said in a statement. The Ministry of Education has initiated four different AI centres so far.
“The Columbia-IIT Bombay Centre of AI for Manufacturing is a significant step in strengthening India’s manufacturing ecosystem through advanced, human-centric AI. By building open and interoperable industrial AI infrastructure, this initiative will support industry modernisation, empower MSMEs, nurture startups, and develop future-ready talent,” IIT Bombay director, Prof Shireesh Kedare said. This partnership reflects our commitment to nation building, positioning India as a global leader in AI-driven manufacturing innovation, he added.
