In an interview with PTI, Ashok Krish stated that firms who approach AI as a board-level transformation priority rather than an IT project are seeing actual high-value implementations. According to Ashok Krish, Global Head of AI at TCS, artificial intelligence (AI) will drive the development of new technologies and change the nature of work. He emphasized that AI should not be considered as a threat to jobs but rather as a catalyst for the transformation of skills.

In an interview with PTI, Krish stated that genuine high-value implementations are taking place in businesses that perceive AI as a board-level transformation priority rather than an IT project. He asserted that artificial intelligence (AI) is a cultural revolution that necessitates altering human behavior in addition to technology advancements.

Looking at the broader trend, he said, AI is just the next evolution, one that will ultimately lead to more technology being built, as it simplifies the entire process.

“So I think it’s wrong to look at it through the lens of job loss and it is more an opportunity to transform skill,” he said.
