I had the opportunity to represent Inmobi at BHARAT NLP workshop, which is a NITI Aayog initiative towards the National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence in India. NITI is a policy think tank of the Government of India which aims at sustainable development goals.
The goal of the workshop was to architect a single access point repository of NLP tools for Indic languages. This would lower the entry barrier for delivery of dynamic content in Indic languages and in-turn make the products and services accessible in all Indic languages and their user-base.
To facilitate this, we had interactive sessions with leading academics, industry experts, and startups working across NLP use-cases - which finally culminated into each of us breaking out in group discussions, coming up with the design - and presenting our architecture & insights.
This work is the sum total of our learnings as a group.
