Indian IT sector 'bytes' into 2025 with cautious optimism amid big AI bets

The Indian IT industry steps into 2025 with hope and optimism of improved tech spending and stronger deal pipeline as businesses across-the-board take bold AI bets, but all eyes are on global macroeconomic cues as well as the US' stance on trade and high-skilled immigration as President-elect Donald Trump returns to White House next month.

AI has potential to aid fair competition for sustainable growth: CCI chief

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to aid cartelisation by automating collusive behaviour through predictive algorithms, Competition Commission chief Ravneet Kaur has said, asserting that the watchdog is focused on developing ecosystems that ensure algorithmic transparency and accountability while promoting innovation. The Competition Commission of India (CCI), which works to curb unfair business practices in the market place, has commenced the study on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and competition that is expected to be completed by mid-2025. The study will look at various elements, including AI in the area of logistics and algorithms in general. In an interview to PTI, Kaur said mere use of algorithms cannot be anti-competitive but in case the algorithms are manipulated, then that is a competition issue. "AI has the potential to aid cartelisation by automating collusive behaviour through predictive algorithms... our focus is on developing ecosystems that ensure ...

2025 to see AI turn into business value as it becomes reality at scale

Artificial intelligence (AI) transitioned from a temporary trend to a widespread reality, gaining traction across industries due to its potential to enhance efficiency, generate revenue and create entirely new roles, yet concerns around its use and impact on jobs remained. Gone are the days when it was merely a buzzword; AI has now become an integral part of business strategy across various sectors. But its full impact on jobs is little known and so is the issue of intellectual property, data ownership and its privacy implications, and liability - who is liable if an accident or mishap occurs due to the use of AI. As technology becomes increasingly human-like and pervasive, organisations are now striving to unlock business value through innovative methods to engage customers and employees, enhance operational efficiencies, and generate new revenue streams, Wipro CIO Anup Purohit said. "We are working towards a future where AI is integrated seamlessly into everyday operations beyond
