Meta partners with Telangana government to implement AI tools

Meta on Thursday announced a partnership with the Telangana government. With this collaboration, the tech giant will offer artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to help the state government improve its e-governance portals and administrations and increase productivity and efficiency of public departments. The Telangana government has entered into a two-year partnership under which it will receive the know-how and technology to develop innovative solutions. Notably, the tech giant is also offering its AI technology to companies such as Goldman Sachs and AT&T.

In a press release, the social media giant announced that it will be working with the Government of Telangana to create AI-powered technology solutions. The company said, “Meta today announced a two-year partnership with the Department of Information Technology, Electronics and Communications (IT, E&C), Government of Telangana. The strategic partnership will empower government officials and citizens with the latest emerging technologies such as AI to improve e-governance and citizen services.”

To build these technological solutions, Meta will use its own Llama 3.1 AI model and other open-source models. The company did not specify the names of the open-source models it will use. Notably, the tech giant released the Llama 3.1 model in July, and it is this model that powers some of Meta’s AI features.

Generative AI will be used to develop public service delivery of the Telangana government, e-governance mechanisms and productivity and efficiency of government departments and agencies. However, the company did not specify in what capacity the technology will be used.

Meta further emphasized that this partnership is part of the company’s “open approach to AI innovation.” The company claimed that it plans to boost social and economic opportunities in the state with generative AI. Notably, details about the nature of these solutions were not shared.

Separately, Meta also claimed that its AI models are also being used by companies like Goldman Sachs and AT&T. These AI solutions are said to be used in customer service, document review, and computer code generation.

The social media giant is also using its AI models to power its internal platforms. Interestingly, a recent report claimed that WhatsApp is getting a two-way conversation feature for Meta AI that will provide users with a hands-free experience.
