Coinciding with Jensen Huang's India visit, Infosys on October 24 announced the launch of two small language models built using the NVIDIA AI stack, for banking and IT-specific applications.
The announcement further deepens Infosys' enterprise AI journey with NVIDIA, and the small language models are utilizing industry-specific data, enhanced by NVIDIA and in collaboration with Sarvam AI.
