IIT Jodhpur Builds Offline AI Assistant for Health and Education

IIT Jodhpur researchers are creating a multimodal AI assistant capable of functioning offline, a first for the institute. The project, led by Dr. Divya Saxena, focuses on efficient AI agents that can process text, images and voice without cloud support. The assistant is intended to serve health and education domains, providing reliable support in areas with limited connectivity. The team plans to test the system in local hospitals and schools before wider deployment.
