AP to introduce AI tutor in all schools

Amaravati: In a first of its kind extending the AI push to school education, the Andhra Pradesh Government has signed an MoU with the Indian Institute of Technology Madras in partnership with Bodhan AI to roll out an AI Tutor across all schools in the State.

The agreement was signed in the presence of Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu at the AI Impact Summit being held in New Delhi.

The AI tutor will be grounded 100 per cent in SCERT textbooks, targeting at least 98 per cent curriculum accuracy with zero tolerance for unsafe or harmful content. Implementation will follow a three phase model consisting of design, pilot in over 100 schools and statewide scale up, with defined uptime benchmarks of 95 to 97 percent. The platform will function as State owned Digital Public Infrastructure, ensuring full data sovereignty, parental consent and compliance with the DPDP Act 2023, while supporting teachers and not replacing them.

For Andhra Pradesh. artificial intelligence is not merely an economic lever. It is an educational mission that begins in classrooms, scales through universities and prepares an entire generation for the quantum and AI era.

Meanwhile, in partnership with BharatGen, NexGen and IBM, Andhra Pradesh signed a Letter of Intent to launch a Statewide AI Tech Hub built on a five layer Swadeshi AI Stack. The platform will integrate 22 Indian languages, more than 500 sovereign GPUs and indigenous large language models to support governance, welfare, agriculture, MSMEs and education. It is designed to enable department ready AI applications and secure AI sandboxes on a unified State platform.
