How Gemma 4 Teaches Telugu to Kids Whose Parents Forgot the Script

This project reveals a critical limitation in AI vision models: Gemma 4 performs reliably on Latin scripts but fails significantly on Indic script recognition, forcing developers to redirect the model toward its genuine strengths—pedagogical reasoning and curriculum generation. It addresses a real challenge facing diaspora communities where parents fluently speak their heritage language but lost the ability to read and write, demonstrating how agentic AI can solve genuine educational problems when designed around realistic technical constraints.
