Ola’s founder Bhavish Aggarwal today announced the public beta rollout of its chatbot, KRUTRIM. “This is a start for us and our first-generation product,” he said, adding that it would improve significantly as they build on this base. “Do give us your feedback,” he urged.

This development comes against Google Gemini's biased output and image generation mishaps. The Ola chief seems confident. “While some hallucinations will be there, [these would be] much lower for Indian contexts than other global platforms,” he added, saying that they will be working overtime to find and fix them.

TBH, it is too early to judge, but KRUTRIM is not only hallucinating to the next level, the experience is super slow (we hope it gets better). For instance, when asked to translate information written in English to Hindi, the chatbot confidently answered in Marathi, replete with redundant information. The translation from English to other languages also needs improvement – both grammatically and contextually.

However, compared with the ChatGPT beta version, the early version of KRUTRIM is way better in terms of understanding Hinglish and other local languages, as well as at solving maths problems.

Thanks to KRUTRIM, we now have our very own chatbot :)
