Indian IT firms start training employees in ChatGPT, other AI-related tech

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Infosys, India’s top two IT firms by valuation, are introducing training and skilling for employees on ChatGPT and similar artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. Global IT companies such as Accenture have also included such modules on ChatGPT and similar AI technologies for their employees, the Economic Times reported (ET).

The news comes at a time when AI models are expected to disrupt Indian IT firms and their access to talent, the report said.

ET’s report quoted TCS as saying that the company 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 technology is used.
