Generative AI Platform Gen AI of IIT Alumni Council

Generative AI Platform (GAP)

The IIT Alumni Councilhas launched a major initiative using Generative AI (Gen AI)—the Generative AI Platform (GAP)—to accelerate the creation of non-fiction books and OTT video series that chronicle transformative stories from India and inspire future generations.
The GAP is designed to reduce the time and cost of producing high-quality non-fiction content, making it possible to document authentic stories of innovation and resilience rapidly. Inspired by the book “The Maverick Effect,” which tells the story of NASSCOM and took over three years to compile with expert help, GAP envisions producing 100 impactful stories in just 100 weeks.

Purpose and Impact

  • The platform aims to preserve and share real-life journeys from Indian entrepreneurs, industries, and social movements that might otherwise be untold.
  • GAP is part of a broader mission to catalyze India’s technological renaissance and document transformative movements with speed and authenticity.
  • These efforts help inspire future generations with stories of Indian innovation and encourage wider participation in nation-building initiatives.

Technological and Social Vision

  • GAP leverages advanced Gen AI to quickly create books and documentaries, maintaining depth and credibility while being highly efficient.
  • The IIT Alumni Council is also supporting research and policy proposals to address potential risks from frontier technologies like agentic AI, cyber-attacks, and gene editing, stressing the importance of deploying Assistive AI and fostering collaboration.
  • This initiative is backed by a group of alumni, donors, and industry veterans, with an emphasis on sustainable development and technological empowerment.

Organizational Profile

  • The IIT Alumni Council represents alumni from all the 23 IITs with over 45,000 registered volunteer members.
  • It focuses on emerging technologies, entrepreneurship, inclusion, and quality of life, facilitating connections between alumni, industry, government, and research bodies for nation-building activities.
