OpenAI and Meta Platforms have held separate discussions with India's Reliance Industries about potential partnerships to expand their artificial intelligence (AI) presence in the country, technology news website The Information reported on Saturday.

One of the proposals under discussion involves a collaboration between Reliance Jio and OpenAI to distribute ChatGPT, according to The Information, which cited two sources familiar with the matter.

OpenAI has reportedly considered lowering the ChatGPT subscription fee from $20 per month to just a few dollars, though it is unclear whether this price reduction has been discussed with Reliance.

Reliance has explored selling OpenAI's models to enterprise clients via an application programming interface (API), as well as hosting and operating OpenAI's models locally to ensure that Indian customer data remains within the country, the report stated.

The conglomerate has also discussed running AI models from Meta and OpenAI in a massive three-gigawatt data center it plans to build in Jamnagar, Gujarat. Reliance has described this facility as the world's largest data center.

Meta declined to comment on The Information report, while OpenAI and Reliance have yet to respond to requests for comment.

Reliance Industries, led by Mukesh Ambani, is one of India's largest conglomerates, with business interests spanning petrochemicals, refining, oil and gas exploration, telecommunications, retail, and green energy.
