New Delhi: Satish H C, executive vice-president and co-head (delivery), said according to a Business Standard report, that because of new technologies like generative AI (artificial intelligence), companies will need fewer employees in the future. He added that this shift will happen gradually over the next three to five years.
He further explained that as companies start using advanced technologies like generative AI more, they’ll become more efficient, and that means they won’t need as many people for traditional jobs. In simple terms, as technology becomes more important, companies might hire fewer people in the future, and this shift is expected to happen slowly over the next few years.
In another interview with Reuters, the Infosys senior executive had said that the company was also turning out to be “AI first.”
He had said, “At Infosys, I don’t think we were digital first. It took us a few years, but now that we have the hindsight of how we adapted to digital, we are adapting to AI much better and I think we are going AI first,” he said.
