What do you think of India's IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw comparing the Indian government's efforts to build a localised AI model to sending a mission to the moon at a fraction of the cost?

Your Mars mission was also inexpensive because it was extremely basic

Ashwin talked of the Moon mission being at a fraction of the cost but did he also talk of the objectives of the various moon missions of other countries?

The only answer would be a possible advantage for ISRO, sometime in the distant future

Why do narcissists keep calling on the phone after years of separation?

Didn't the States put living people on the moon?

Would you be able to tell me how either benefited the Indian population?

So the Minister gave an erroneous analogy which makes me wonder if he knows what he is talking about

I don't think the Big 5 Companies will take that lying down and may place a lot of obstacles in India's way

It is a strange argument

On the other hand, a mission to the moon, something already done by everyone else of consequence, is not something that would challenge anyone's interest in any way

For one thing, moon travel is not a commercial thing and the benefits of moon travel are primarily futuristic and at a level which cannot be immediately monetized

What did your sister do to you that you can never forget?

So i doubt India ruffled any feathers with a moon mission

Is it not an entirely different ball game?

Now India has to make a Galardo and compete with a Ferrari made by the States and a Porsche made by China

Is there an MBTI personality that is more or less likely to handle stress?

Does India have the necessary AI Talent?

The States and China, they did a lot more in Mars than India did in terms of exploration and study

Was that a comparable argument ?

How do you think the leaked reports on Israel's operation in Lebanon will influence global perceptions of the Middle East conflict?

So if you translate his speech, is he saying India would create a low cost AI model which will fulfil some very basic objectives and not be anywhere near the level of the latest versions of GPT or Deepseek?

India made a Maruti 800 that could take a trip between two places, at a lower cost that the States that had a Ferrari take the same trip long ago

Without any of this being discussed, Ashwin going directly to cost, seems a very untenable argument

Didn't the Chinese ones bring some soil back?

A second point is - the Moon Mission was inexpensive because it was extremely basic
