OpenAI, Meta eye AI partnership with Reliance Industries

OpenAI and Meta Platforms are exploring partnerships with India’s Reliance Industries, according to The Information.

OpenAI executives have discussed a potential collaboration with Reliance, which may involve product distribution through its business units, including Jio.

Meta is also in talks with Reliance for a similar AI-focused partnership, competing with OpenAI for the deal.

These partnerships could involve selling or distributing AI solutions, though details remain unclear.

They may also help OpenAI and Meta strengthen ties with Indian government officials and local consumers, addressing concerns about foreign AI firms overshadowing domestic players.
