India has made a big leap in the world of smart AI with Hanooman! India’s very own “largest multilingual and affordable GenAI platform.”It is a special AI tool made by SML India, a company from India, along with 3AI Holding from Abu Dhabi. Hanooman is a revolutionary super smart tool, proficient in understanding and responding in a remarkable 98 languages, including 12 Indian languages such as Hindi and Tamil.
The launch of Hanooman marks a significant milestone in India’s AI landscape. It is all about making AI available to everyone in the country.
