IT companies join ChatGPT buzz, add AI skilling courses for staff

India’s two top IT firms by revenue – Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Infosys – along with global tech consultants such as Accenture are including training and skilling modules for beginners on ChatGPT and similar artificial intelligence (AI) technologies.

This comes amid reports that ChatGPT and similar generative AI models may disrupt Indian IT firms and their access to talent.

TCS will add generative-AI themed courses, not only to help employees become aware of the themes but also skill them to handle operations where such generative AI is used, the company said.
