Targeting real-world AI actions

NxtGen has launched ‘M’, described as India’s first open-source AI platform designed to execute real-world actions rather than focus solely on data analysis. The system integrates AI decision-making with internet-connected devices, robotics and automation, enabling use in manufacturing, city services and other sectors. It can function without human intervention and is built for scalability and security. NxtGen said the platform could be applied in logistics, healthcare and agriculture. The company aims to make AI more accessible to Indian enterprises, seeking to bridge the gap between research and practical deployment in industry and public service.
