Microsoft aspires to skill 5 lakh people through its big AI push in India
By MYBRANDBOOK
Microsoft is seeking to broaden its AI push in India and thereby aims to skill 5 lakh youth. It will include 10,000 developers in artificial intelligence (AI), for which Microsoft will set up labs in 10 universities.
The technology giant is working with stakeholders across public and private sectors, civil society and academia in the country to create the right conditions for human-focused AI. Microsoft is attempting to do this with government and private companies, around 700 in number at present.
According to Meetul Patel, COO, Microsoft India, India is at a tipping point in AI. The growth of start-ups in this segment, coupled with availability of technology and talent will help India to compete in the future.
Microsoft believes that development of talent is vital for economic growth, and is working to skill individuals across demographics to succeed in an AI-enabled world. Microsoft also recently announced the Intelligent Cloud Hub Program, to equip research and higher education institutions with AI infrastructure, build curriculum, and help both faculty and students to build skill-sets in cloud computing, data sciences, AI and Internet of Things (IoT).
In another case, BPO companies’ consumers who contact them - through social media, chat, email, text, or over the phone - will receive personalized experiences based on past interactions, allowing customer service representatives to access information between platforms.
Further, Microsoft is taking the help of 715 partners to go to market in India to help customers design and implement AI and boost employee productivity.
