New IndicTalk Corpus Boosts Multilingual Conversational AI for Indic Languages

Researchers have introduced IndicTalk, a substantial new corpus of multilingual, code-mixed conversations designed to advance conversational AI for Indic languages. The dataset features over 1.3 million multi-turn dialogues across 18 language varieties of 9 Indic languages, generated automatically using large language models grounded in real-world news. IndicTalk aims to address the scarcity of high-quality dialogue resources for these languages, supporting the development of more capable conversational AI systems. AI

IMPACT This dataset will enable the development and evaluation of more sophisticated multilingual conversational AI systems for underrepresented Indic languages.

RANK_REASON The cluster describes a new research paper introducing a large-scale dataset for conversational AI.
