Salesforce and SmartBridge Launch AI Skilling Initiative for 1 Lakh Learners
Salesforce, a company that makes tools for businesses, is teaming up with another company called SmartBridge.
Together, they are starting a big project in India to teach a lot of people about Artificial Intelligence, or AI.
AI is like teaching computers to think and learn.
They want to teach 100,000 people how to use AI by the year 2026.
They will use a free online tool from Salesforce called Trailhead to teach them.
This will help people get jobs that need AI skills and make sure India has smart people to work with new technology.
Salesforce and SmartBridge have launched the 'YuvaAI Bharat: GenAI Skill Catalyst' program.
The initiative aims to equip learners across India with future-ready AI skills.
The program plans to train 100,000 learners by the end of 2026.
