Top-tier colleges like RVCE, MSRIT, BMSCE, and UVCE generally have much lower cutoffs for AI/ML and other popular branches, typically closing admissions for the general category before the 15,000-40,000 rank range.

There's a possibility of getting into AI/ML programs in some private or semi-government colleges, particularly in Tier 2 or Tier 3 cities, where the competition might be less intense and cutoffs could be within your rank range.
