What do you think of India's IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw comparing the Indian government's efforts to build a localised AI model to sending a mission to the moon at a fraction of the cost?

I don't think the Big 5 Companies will take that lying down and may place a lot of obstacles in India's way
India made a Maruti 800 that could take a trip between two places, at a lower cost that the States that had a Ferrari take the same trip long ago

So if you translate his speech, is he saying India would create a low cost AI model which will fulfil some very basic objectives and not be anywhere near the level of the latest versions of GPT or Deepseek?
So the Minister gave an erroneous analogy which makes me wonder if he knows what he is talking about
Does India have the necessary set up in place?
Is it not an entirely different ball game?
Now India has to make a Galardo and compete with a Ferrari made by the States and a Porsche made by China
Was that a comparable argument ?

Does India have critical areas that need AI models?
A second point is - the Moon Mission was inexpensive because it was extremely basic

For one thing, moon travel is not a commercial thing and the benefits of moon travel are primarily futuristic and at a level which cannot be immediately monetized

Didn't the States put living people on the moon?

Without any of this being discussed, Ashwin going directly to cost, seems a very untenable argument
So i doubt India ruffled any feathers with a moon mission
Ashwin talked of the Moon mission being at a fraction of the cost but did he also talk of the objectives of the various moon missions of other countries?

On the other hand, a mission to the moon, something already done by everyone else of consequence, is not something that would challenge anyone's interest in any way
Does India have the necessary AI Talent?
It is a strange argument
