Data in a Planet of Agents : Introducing NANDini

The idea that our planet can be accurately represented in 1’s and 0’s as we connect every physical object with every living being is no longer science fiction.

Now that we checked that off the list, creating in its wake industrial ecosystems larger than the world has ever seen, what comes next will be even more explosive. And revolutionary.

THE RISE OF THE PLANET OF AGENTS

One where every inch of the very foundation that the current technology industry was created on will be shaken.

AN ATTEMPTED LOGICAL EXPLANATION OF THE CURRENT STATE OF THE WORLD

The necessary catalysts that can fundamentally redraw the boundaries technology operates in are finally here - UNLIMITED STORAGE & ABUNDANT COMPUTING POWER.

The level of spending needed to plug the gaps is also here - $380 BILLION spent by the MAMA’s in 2025 on AI infrastructure AND $1 TRILLION announced by OpenAI alone in the last 12 months.

This will not only change human interaction with technology for us as consumers, but also the use of technology by us as workers.

A $1.3 TRILLION OPPORTUNITY

Businesses globally spend 1.3 trillion dollars a year on enterprise software - to help them run efficiently, responsibly and productively.

This entire trillion dollar industry was built on one assumption (which is a reality) - businesses are a function of the collective effort of human workers…humans that by their very nature are prone to errors and variances.

So we created systems, processes and tools to help manage many a human folly - that makes its way into everything a business must do.

Which became, over the last 50 odd years, a trillion dollar industry larger than any other industrial complex of similar scale and size.

THE PLANET OF AGENTS

All that is about to change.

I believe that the foundation and frameworks are being laid to seed the creation of advanced agents with super-intelligence that will automate the entire lifecycle of data driven decision making on our planet.

Knowledge distillation, model context protocol and agentic systems of intelligence are some of the hottest areas of research and development in the world today.

With an ability to train on the world's data and provide actionable answers on demand, we are fundamentally changing how we create, curate and compute data driven solutions.

A world where AGENTS create data, AGENTS then process the data, handing off to AGENTS that deduce intelligence from the data, so that other AGENTS can take decisions that solve the needs and wants of humanity is a future that is here…now.

So it is imperative we ask the question - In a world of “1 to the hundred” agents, what will happen to the DATA-TO-DECISION life-cycle?

MIT NANDA has already done us all a favor by starting the conversation about this future planetary reality.

Over the last 12 months, we have worked closely with the NANDA team and launched an internal effort in parallel to start framing what the world of data will look like on a planet full of a googol load of agents.

Today we announce that effort to the world, dubbed - NANDini.

Networked Agents Natural Distillation of Interconnected Nodal Intelligence (NANDini) builds on the early ideas expressed in NANDA architecture to test emerging hypotheses that seek to build solutions to a world in which data is an output of agents alone.

We plan to make our work in NANDini open, transparent and planet scale.

Our vision is still the same and rings true more than ever - in data lies the power to enrich life.

And we will forever remain committed to the one thing we do better than anyone else - accuracy in data.

We realise this is bold, risky and (a little bit) explosive…and your point is…
