IIT Delhi & IBM join hands for AI research

IBM and Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi have entered into multi-year research collaboration on artificial intelligence (AI). With this collaboration, the duo will develop AI solutions for organisations across all sectors. 

IBM researchers will collaborate with students and professors from the IIT Delhi for conducting joint research in AI systems focusing on some key traits such as reasoning, comprehension and inferencing. 

Michael Karasick, Vice President, Global Labs, IBM Research, said, "While working with AI systems, organisations require explicit reasoning and comprehension to reach a particular conclusion. We believe advancement in AI can tackle such problems."

Ramgopal Rao, Director, IIT Delhi, said, "India has immense talent to accelerate innovation in AI and related technologies. We are happy to collaborate with IBM Research scientists and provide opportunities to our students and faculty colleagues to work on some of the complex problems around AI and apply the solutions to real-world scenarios."
