India’s richest man now wants to turn aging computers into AI-ready PCs
JioPC is now being sold across India as a cloud-streamed PC subscription, not just a Jio broadband add-on.
Reliance Jio says the service can give older computers access to AI-capable computing without new hardware. Plans start at ₹1,000 for two months, with higher tiers offering up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage. Analysts cited by TechCrunch say the pitch depends on whether Indian users accept paying monthly for computing power, especially when the service needs a stable internet connection.
