New Delhi: India’s Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has unveiled plans to train 25,000 engineers on generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools and services by OpenAI. The AI services will be hosted and provided via Microsoft’s Azure cloud platform, making them available to TCS’ clients.
TCS has also launched its TCS Generative AI Enterprise Adoption business offering, which will deploy OpenAI’s generative AI business tools via Azure to companies. The firm said the unit will ‘help clients enhance customer experience, launch new business models, grow revenue and enhance productivity’.
The development of Azure OpenAI follows TCS announcing a partnership with Google Cloud in May to launch generative AI business offerings.
TCS also said that the company already has 50,000 employees trained in AI, but the latest batch of 25,000 employees will be specifically certified in Azure OpenAI skills, to cater to client demand in its new business unit.
