Open AI Working To Have India Presence

NEW DELHI, (IANS) – Sam Altman’s OpenAI is reportedly working with ex-Twitter India head Rishi Jaitly to help the ChatGPT developer understand the Indian policies and regulations around AI and how to navigate those.

According to a report in TechCrunch, Jaitly is working as a senior advisor with OpenAI to facilitate talks with the government about AI policy.

“OpenAI is also looking to set up a local team in India,” the report mentioned on December 9.

OpenAI or Jaitly were yet to comment on the report.

Jaitly served as head of the public-private partnership for Google in India from 2007 and 2009, before moving to Twitter in 2012.

He was the company’s first employee in the country, according to his LinkedIn profile.

In late 2016, Jaitly left Twitter and became the co-founder and CEO of Times Bridge, the global investment arm of The Times Group.

OpenAI currently does not have an official presence in India.
