The growing misuse of artificial intelligence technologies and the exploitation of famous personalities’ identities for self-centered motives lead to economic and social losses.
On July 31st, 2024, the Bombay High Court granted interim relief to Bollywood singer Arijit Singh in his copyright lawsuit against artificial intelligence platforms copying his voice.
Arijit’s name, image, voice, and personality traits were being compromised without authorization. Justice Rl Chagla noticed these traits are protectable under personality and publicity rights.
Discussions were conducted about the misuse of artificial intelligence technologies, which can take away individuals’ control over their image and likeness. This issue makes it difficult for people to stop others from using their identity for malicious purposes.
The Bombay High Court noted that AI technologies threaten the jobs of original artists. Using a performer’s identity to attract mass attention to websites and events puts individuals’ rights in danger.
Apart from this incident, Arijit’s identity was used unauthorizedly by various other sources. A pub in Bangalore advertised an event using his name and photos, and a business owner sold merchandise online with the artist’s photo.
Singh’s lawyer argued that the artist has exclusive rights to control how his personal information is used. He also stated that the unauthorized use of Arijit’s name could harm his reputation and violate his moral rights under Section 38-B of the Copyright Act, 1957.
Swaayatt Robots, a Bhopal-based autonomous driving research startup, raised $4M on June 3rd at a valuation of $151M. This fund is part of their larger second Seed round of $15M. The startup aims to obtain the remaining $11M at a valuation of around $175M-$200M soon; investors in North America, Europe, and Australia have expressed interest.
In the next 6 to 7 months, Swaayatt Robots plans to raise $50M in pre-Series A to expand its global footprint and scale up the technology significantly. The startup is initially targeting operations in North America, the UK, and the Middle East.
“We want to solve the Level-4 autonomous driving problem globally at scale, fueled by our Level-5 AI models and algorithmic frameworks for autonomous driving,” says Sanjeev to Analytics Drift. Going forward, the startup is heavily going to invest in “(i) doing cutting-edge R&D in unsupervised learning and reinforcement learning domains to robustify the perception and planning capabilities, and (ii) bridging all the AI models and algorithmic frameworks the startup has developed, to make an architecture that can be scaled globally for Level-4 autonomous driving”, the founder highlighted when speaking to Analytics Drift. For such ambitious targets, the startup is also planning to raise $1.5B, beyond pre-series A, in the next 15 months. Sanjeev also believes that Swaayatt Robots is poised to solve the Level-5 problem and emerge as one of the major technology suppliers for autonomous navigation worldwide by 2028.
With the recent funds, Swaayatt Robots will invest in R&D to further enhance the development of autonomous vehicles for both on-road and off-road conditions. One of the pioneers in LiDAR-less navigation, the startup has showcased several demos of vehicles effortlessly navigating uncertain terrains.
For instance, in one of the demos, the startup exhibited the ability to negotiate the incoming flow of traffic off-roads, a technological capability that is currently unique to Swaayatt Robots at this time. Even companies like Kodiak Robotics, Overland AI, and the US DARPA Racer program’s participants have struggled to showcase similar capabilities. This has been a result of years of cutting-edge R&D in deep learning, reinforcement learning, motion planning and decision making, machine learning, and other frontiers of theoretical computer science and applied mathematics.
Over the years, Swaayatt has strived to be the torchbearer for solving complex problems in the autonomous vehicles industry. Even in late 2023, they displayed several ground-breaking innovations. Last October, the startup demonstrated bidirectional traffic negotiation on single-lane roads—a capability again unique to Swaayatt Robots.
Backed by impactful R&D and successful demonstrations, Sanjeev and his team aspire to solve the Level-4 problem globally. “In India, we have already demonstrated several Level-5 capability algorithmic frameworks to solve certain frontiers of problems in autonomous driving. For example, in our March 2024 demo at the Baglamukhi Mata Mandir, we also demonstrated the ability to cross unmanaged intersections. Typically, even crossing a managed-traffic-light intersection is considered a challenge in the US by major companies like Waymo, Cruise, Tesla, etc.,” asserts Sanjeev.
Swaayatt will continue to exhibit several demos of its autonomous driving capabilities in the coming months. For example, in August this year, the startup plans to highlight major capabilities previously unseen in the field of autonomous driving at large. For last-mile autonomy applications, Swaayatt has been conducting R&D to develop sparse maps and inference algorithms that have very low computational requirements, along with automating the generation of high-definition feature layers in the maps.
Sanjeev thinks that one of the core challenging problems in the autonomous driving industry is safety and operational cost. While the startup will continue to invest in enhancing the models to ensure safety in the presence of traffic-dynamics that is highly stochastic, complex, and adversarial in nature, Swaayatt has developed efficient models to reduce operational costs.
“Over the years, we have been demonstrating our deep learning algorithmic frameworks, in the areas of perception and planning, that are an order of magnitude computationally efficient compared to the state-of-the-art while having better performance and more capabilities. Going forward, we will unify most of the algorithmic frameworks we have developed into holistic autonomous agents that are 20-30 times computationally efficient in holistic decision-making and planning for autonomous vehicles.
For example, the current version of our motion planning and decision-making algorithmic framework, which we have been demonstrating off-roads, runs at more than 200 Hz on a single thread of a laptop processor. We are further extending this with the integration of deep reinforcement learning. It will eliminate the need for explicit perception algorithms required for off-road navigation and will operate at close to 40 Hz. This is just one of the instances of the several frameworks we have been demonstrating over the past few months,” explains Sanjeev.
Sanjeev also believes that we need a solution to autonomous driving in the presence of highly stochastic, complex, and adversarial traffic-dynamics on the roads to come up with Level-4 or Level-5 autonomous driving technology. Without this, safety cannot be ensured and will require endless iterations and discovery of corner cases. Therefore, Swaayatt Robots is solving the hardest AI problem of this decade, enabling autonomous agents to learn and negotiate adversarial, complex, and stochastic traffic-dynamics.
By solving the root cause, the idea is to eventually get numerous by-products and make the technology ready for several verticals, such as (i) warehouse autonomous navigation technology, (ii) campus autonomous navigation technology, and (iii) autonomous trucking on highways. Sanjeev, while speaking to Analytics Drift, mentioned that “the core focus, however, of the startup is going to be doing cutting-edge R&D in various frontiers of modern AI, theoretical computer science and applied mathematics, to develop foundational models to solve the problem of autonomous general navigation, that enables autonomous vehicles to safely navigate from point to point while being operationally cost-efficient.”
With such competencies, Swaayatt Robots is now working with major OEMs to commercialize the technology later this year.
In an era where information is at our fingertips, the emergence of Large Language Models (LLMs) such as OpenAI’s GPT-4 and Google’s BERT has transformed how we access and interact with knowledge. These sophisticated models can provide quick, coherent answers to a vast array of questions, offering a level of convenience that traditional search engines struggle to match. However, this convenience comes with a significant caveat: the potential for biased information and the consequent narrowing of our knowledge landscape, thereby making LLMs the Gatekeepers of truth.
One of the most profound implications of relying on LLMs is the risk of receiving answers that reflect the biases and limitations of the data these models are trained on. Unlike a traditional search engine, which presents a spectrum of sources and perspectives, an LLM often provides a single, authoritative-sounding response. This dynamic can inadvertently establish the model as a gatekeeper of truth, shaping our understanding of complex issues without presenting the full diversity of viewpoints.
Consider the field of health and medicine. When querying a health-related issue, an LLM might provide an answer heavily influenced by the predominant views within the pharmaceutical industry. This response could be well-researched and accurate within the context of Western medicine, yet it may completely overlook alternative perspectives, such as those offered by Ayurveda or other holistic practices. The result is a partial view of health that excludes significant, culturally rich knowledge systems, depriving users of a holistic understanding of their health options.
The reasons for this bias are multifaceted. Firstly, the training data for LLMs is predominantly sourced from readily available digital content, which is heavily skewed towards Western scientific and medical paradigms. Secondly, the entities that develop and maintain these models may have commercial interests or inherent biases that shape the model’s training objectives and filtering processes. Consequently, the answers provided by LLMs can reflect these biases, subtly steering users toward specific viewpoints.
The potential for biased information extends beyond health to many other domains, including politics, history, and economics. For instance, an LLM might present a version of historical events that aligns with the dominant narratives found in Western literature, marginalizing the perspectives of other cultures and communities. Similarly, in political discourse, the model might favor mainstream ideologies over less represented ones, thus influencing public opinion in subtle yet impactful ways.
The fundamental issue here is not just the presence of bias but the lack of transparency and choice. With traditional search engines like Google, users are presented with a variety of sources and can exercise critical judgment in evaluating the information. They have the opportunity to explore diverse viewpoints, compare different sources, and arrive at a more informed conclusion. This process of exploration and comparison is crucial for developing a nuanced understanding of complex issues.
In contrast, the answers provided by LLMs can create an illusion of certainty and completeness, discouraging further inquiry. This is particularly concerning in a world where information literacy is unevenly distributed, and many users may not possess the skills or motivation to question the responses they receive from these authoritative models. This kind of overreliance has been a side effect of capitalism. For instance, today, most people don’t read the ingredients of the food products they buy. This has led FMCG companies to play with the health of the common people.
To mitigate risks involved in the LLM responses, it is essential to foster a more transparent and inclusive approach to the development and deployment of LLMs. This includes diversifying the training data to encompass a broader range of perspectives, implementing mechanisms to disclose the sources and potential biases of the provided answers, and promoting the importance of cross-referencing information from multiple sources.
Furthermore, users must be encouraged to maintain a critical mindset and resist the temptation to rely solely on the convenience of LLMs for information. However, cross-referencing would ultimately lead to more or less adopting the traditional approach of using a search engine to find the information you can rely upon.
In the future, LLMs and search engines will coexist in finding information for everyday needs. As a result, the notion that LLMs would put Google out of business seems very vague.
While LLMs offer remarkable advancements in accessing and processing information, they must be approached with caution. LLMs, as gatekeepers of truth, hold significant power to shape our understanding of the world. It is imperative that we recognize their limitations and strive to preserve the richness of diverse perspectives in our quest for knowledge. Only by doing so can we ensure that the democratization of information remains a force for good, rather than a tool for unintentional bias and partial truths.

Datasets are utilized across different industries for a wide range of tasks like content creation, code generation, and language generation. These datasets are used for training LLMs; however, when reversing the order, LLMs are also required to build high-quality datasets.
LLMs are used to interpret and understand large volumes of datasets understand and generate text effectively. Let’s study the relationship between datasets and LLMs in detail while establishing how each of these technologies helps the other.
LLMs are advanced deep-learning models trained on large volumes of data for different purposes;
Understand text
Generate text
Translation
Analysis
Summarization
These LLMs are trained on self-supervised and semi-supervised learning methodologies, gaining several capabilities, including the ability to predict and generate the next word based on a prompt or input data.
The Importance of High-Quality Data Essential to Building LLMs
Untrained and raw data will have a significant impact on the quality and performance of models that harness the data to generate an intended output. As these datasets are the foundation of training LLMs, models working on untrained data will lack the requisite accuracy, context, and relevance in performing the NLP tasks.
Here are a few reasons to build LLMs with high-quality datasets;
Benchmark Model Performance for High-Quality Results
High-quality training datasets ensure that the LLMs are trained in accurate, relevant, and diverse databases. This leads to better model performance and brings the capability to complete a wide range of NLP tasks effectively.
Coherence and Harmony in Text Generation
LLMs working on high-quality datasets deliver a higher coherence within the generated text. Coherence refers to the correct association of context, grammar, and semantics in the generated text. As a result, the users can get contextually relevant information.
Better Generalization Adapted to Different Scenarios
Generalization in machine learning is the capability of the training model to get new insights from the same but unseen components of the training data. This enables the model to adapt to varied contexts and tasks efficiently while ensuring that the model provides accurate responses for different requirements and scenarios.
Reduces Bias and Overfitting of Context
LLMs working on high-quality datasets help mitigate bias and overfitting issues as they are trained on diverse and well-curated datasets. These datasets and models seldom lead to biased results or facilitate inaccurate response generation. Ultimately, LLMs with this capability are considered more trustworthy and reliable.
Key Approaches to Building LLMs with High-Quality Datasets
When building LLMs with datasets, you must take care of data curation/collection, data preprocessing, and data augmentation. Within these leverage experts in Generative AI data solutions for annotation, segmentation, and classification to convert raw complex data into powerful insights.
Work with Real-World Aligned Training Data
You can curate and collect data from different sources, but it’s essential to perfect them by fine-tuning and adapting them to the real world. Data aligned with the latest findings and events delivers better performance, has better generalization capabilities, and enhances accuracy.
Meta used only 1000 carefully selected training examples to build Less is More for Alignment (LIMA). Whereas OpenAI used more than 50,000 training examples to build a generative AI model with similar capabilities.
Synthetic Data Generation
Generative AI is useful here for creating diverse datasets and is effective for training models on different parameters. Combine seed data with synthetic training data to finetune the dataset and evaluate it on various parameters.
This methodology can also be used to train the LLMs on particularly rare classes and to help them filter out low-quality data.
However, using synthetic data or Generative AI models for training, keep these things in mind;
Get high-quality generated data representative of the real world that encompasses a diverse range of situations.
Where generative or synthetic data can create biased or misleading data, take steps to mitigate these issues.
Always verify the generated data with human supervision.
Continuous Feeding of High-Quality Data
Building LLMs isn’t a one-time process. Rather, the model you build will need to evolve and develop. This development rests on continuously providing highly trained seed data. As the LLMs are integrated into their industries, the model needs to be updated, allowing it to stay relevant over time.
