What do you think of India's IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw comparing the Indian government's efforts to build a localised AI model to sending a mission to the moon at a fraction of the cost?

So if you translate his speech, is he saying India would create a low cost AI model which will fulfil some very basic objectives and not be anywhere near the level of the latest versions of GPT or Deepseek?

I don't think the Big 5 Companies will take that lying down and may place a lot of obstacles in India's way

Would you be able to tell me how either benefited the Indian population?

Why are Trump supporters so incredibly stupid?

On the other hand, a mission to the moon, something already done by everyone else of consequence, is not something that would challenge anyone's interest in any way

Does India have the necessary set up in place?

So i doubt India ruffled any feathers with a moon mission

Without any of this being discussed, Ashwin going directly to cost, seems a very untenable argument

Ashwin talked of the Moon mission being at a fraction of the cost but did he also talk of the objectives of the various moon missions of other countries?

A second point is - the Moon Mission was inexpensive because it was extremely basic

So the Minister gave an erroneous analogy which makes me wonder if he knows what he is talking about

For one thing, moon travel is not a commercial thing and the benefits of moon travel are primarily futuristic and at a level which cannot be immediately monetized
