The Mercurial Grok AI Assistant Understands & Speaks Indian Languages

Image
Grok , the AI model developed by Elon Musk's xAI, can understand when you type Indian languages like Hindi, Telugu, Odia or other Indian regional languages using English letters (like when you type 'namaste' instead of 'नमस्ते'), and it can respond by mixing English with those languages. Grok doesn't necessarily need the native script of these languages. It has natural language processing abilities that extend to multiple languages. This is great innovation because many people in India, especially in online communication, use transliteration. Grok can generate responses that combine English words and phrases with words and phrases from the regional language you used in your input. For example, if you ask a question using a mix of English and Telugu transliteration, Grok might respond with a sentence that includes both English and Telugu words. Check these Hindi, Telugu, Odiya samples - Grok, ab Hindi mein Grōk, ippuḍu telugulō Grok, Oḍiā re This way Grok is more...

This Week I Learned - Week #14 2025

Image
This Week I Learned -  * OpenAI is planning to release its first open-weight language model with reasoning capabilities. An open-weight language model's trained parameters or weights are publicly accessible, which can be used by developers to analyze and fine-tune the model for specific tasks without requiring original training data. These language models are different from open-source models, which provide access to the complete source code, training data and methodologies. * Playlist of the 5-Day Gen AI Intensive Course with Google * A single human genome's raw data alone demands roughly 200 GB. This is all necessary to comprehend gene variants and their locations at the subatomic level. Statistically, roughly 0.1% of gene locations differ between any two people, creating a broad spectrum of genetic makeup. Understanding these variations helps pinpoint the causes (and target specific mutations) of genes (disordered sequences causing diseases), influencing disease susceptibi...
