Platforms is launching a cloud-based AI PC, accessible on any device Users 
will be able to build and deploy AI apps across India's largest phone network 
Enterprise offering JioBrain will provide machine learning-as-a-service 

Reliance Industries digital division, Jio Platforms, is reportedly building a 
cloud-based personal computer designed to bring artificial intelligence 
computing to the masses. 

The new system will not require hardware and can be accessed on any device, 
giving users the ability to develop and deploy high-compute AI applications. 

During Mumbai Tech Week 2025, Jio Infocomm chairman Akash Ambani, the son of 
India's richest person Mukesh Ambani, described the upcoming cloud PC as a 
way to democratize AI capabilities. Machine learning-as-a-service 

We have a consumer application which we will be shortly launching. Its a 
cloud PC, which is a complete PC in the cloud, which is accessible in each of 
your houses but really be device agnostic. No hardware. And you can build 
high compute AI applications on top of that. And what you can leverage is the 
reach that Jio is going to have, Ambani was quoted as saying by Inc42 . 

Unlike past efforts such as the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC) initiative, Jios 
cloud-based AI platform will require users to bring their own devices. Jios 
platform approach aims to scale AI services to millions of users across India 
at lower costs. 

One of its upcoming enterprise offerings, JioBrain, will provide machine 
learning-as-a-service, eliminating the need for businesses to invest in 
costly infrastructure. You can just tag on to JioBrain, and well launch that 
in the coming quarters as we perfect the use cases for that, Ambani added. 

Jio is also targeting 100 million users for JioTele OS, its smart TV 
operating system. As  Ambani said, One of our biggest growth missions of Jio 
and where we want to make an impact is connecting each home. But with that, 
well be opening ourselves up as a platform for developers. 

Calling AI one of the biggest technological revolutions of a lifetime, Ambani 
predicted it would help India sustain economic growth of 10% or more. He also 
highlighted the need for infrastructure, research, and talent to position 
India as a leader in AI. Jios parent company, Reliance Group has previously 
announced plans to build a new 3 gigawatt AI data center in Jamnagar - a 
small town in Gujarat  which it hopes to have operational by 2027. You might
