AI Revolution in India

[:en]Cutting-edge advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) are considered a wake-up call to business owners in India. It’s almost imperative for them to view AI as a vital aspect of boosting their business. Stimulating AI-based innovation and establishing AI-ready infrastructure are required to prepare India’s jobs and skills markets for an AI-based future while securing its strategic interests. 

Indian industry is transparent that disruption by technology is forthcoming, and it will need to adopt AI. Doing so allows companies to leverage themselves to drive business value, but as of now, some of them are lagging behind. However, it will slowly gain momentum when the industry can create competition with itself. Most importantly, highlighting the innovations made by startups bring their products mainstream and initiate peer pressure, forcing others to enhance themselves.
