New Delhi: In a landmark move ahead of Diwali, Reliance Industries Limited (RIL), through Reliance Intelligence Limited, has announced a partnership with Google to offer Google AI Pro free of cost to young Jio subscribers. The collaboration marks a major step toward Jio’s vision of democratizing access to cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence for 500 million Indians, beginning with the youth segment. The exclusive offer provides an 18-month complimentary subscription to Google’s premium AI suite, Gemini AI Pro, for eligible Jio users aged up to 25 years.
