The same because the government is currently looking at creating a capacity of 10,000 graphic processing units (GPUs), which is below the limit of 50,000 GPUs to be imposed by the US for procurement by other countries. In fact, the immediate requirement for bidders to be empanelled under the India AI mission, will be to create a capacity of a minimum of 1,000 AI compute units within six months.
Officials said there is no reason to worry at the moment as the scale is minimum. Going forward, if the upcoming Trump administration continues to impose such restrictions, the same could affect the India AI mission. For companies, such as Yotta, E2E, Jio, CtrlS, among others, there could be an impact in the long-run as they will be bound to expand at a limited scale given the restrictions from the US to import such AI chips, analysts said.
