Five Chinese tech firms, including Baidu  and SenseTime Group, on Thursday launched their artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots to the public after receiving government approval, as China's government pushes to widen the use of such products amid competition with the United States.

JSW Group Said to Be in Talks to Get Licence for Technology to Build EVs in India

India's steel-to-energy  JSW Group is in early talks with Chinese automaker Leapmotor  to license technology to build electric vehicles in India, according to people familiar with the discussions.  Under the technology licensing agreement, JSW would use Leapmotor's platform — the structural underpinnings of a car on which it is built — to manufacture EVs in India under its own brand name, the sources said, in the company's second attempt to enter the growing business. JSW is likely to use a single platform on which it can build at least three mid-sized sport-utility vehicles (SUVs), one of the sources said, adding that Leapmotor will also engineer the cars for the Indian company. The sources did not say when production might begin.  The group has also been in talks to buy a stake in MG Motor India, owned by China's SAIC Motor, for its EV push in the country but those discussions have slowed, the person added.

Dell, HP, Lenovo Among 32 Firms That Applied to Make Laptops in India, Says IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw

At least 32 international electronics companies have applied to India's incentive programme to make laptops, tablets and servers in the country, a top minister said on Wednesday, weeks after the government announced restrictions on laptop imports. Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government is pushing to boost domestic manufacturing capacity under its " Make in India " initiative, with several global companies either setting up their own units or entering joint ventures with Indian firms. The applications by the electronics companies were made under the country's $2 billion (roughly Rs. 16,500 crore) production-linked incentive (PLI) programme for information technology hardware, announced in May, Information Technology Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said. Earlier this month, India said it would impose a licensing requirement for imports of laptops, tablets and personal computers, which was widely seen as a move to boost local production. The companies that have app

Google Introduces Generative AI to Search in India and Japan; Will Show Text, Image Results to Prompts

Alphabet's Google said on Wednesday it introduced generative artificial intelligence to its Search tool for users in India and Japan that will show text or visual results to prompts, including summaries. The feature, which was first launched only in the United States, was rolled out this week in the two countries, and users will have the choice to opt in for it. Japanese users will be able to use the feature in their local languages, while it will be available in English and Hindi in India. Google's search feature is meant to be used for seeking information, such as locating something to purchase. It is different from its chatbot Bard , which has a persona that can hold human-like conversations to, for instance, generate software code. Google's AI search competes with Microsoft's Bing . Meanwhile, Google on Tuesday made its artificial intelligence-powered tools available to enterprise customers at a monthly price of $30 (nearly Rs. 2,500) per user, as the Alphab
