Moreover, the company plans to launch an interconnected software system to unite AI with every platform, and tool.AI has taken the world to the next level. Its intelligence has made remarkable achievements as businesses lay off employees who can easily be replaced.
In addition, the company has planned to bring 30,000 employees from data analysis, cloud, consulting, and engineering teams together to embed the technology into the company’s overall operations and solutions offered to clients.
The latest versions of generative AI have the potential to do as many tasks as they can, such as the classification and reorganization of data. Still, they also can compose emails, write text, compose music, and create digital art.
Wipro will design a plan that maps out the complete AI journey for different roles. The completion of the project will culminate in the credentialing of employees through the Decentralized Identity & Credential Exchange (DICE) ID platform.
Wipro also planned to execute hackathons and challenges on its talent crowd platform. The company says, “The USD 1 billion investment will help further advance Wipro’s AI, data and analytics capabilities and foundation, R&D and platforms, enhance FullStride Cloud, and build new consulting capabilities to help clients adapt to change and unlock new value through AI.”
