India’s IT Giants Move AI From Pilots Into Everyday Work
From AI pilots to everyday work: What are India’s IT giants doing differently? · businesstoday.in

India’s large technology companies are moving from testing AI to using it every day.

They are giving many workers access to Microsoft 365 Copilot, an AI tool for workplace tasks.

At TCS, workers use AI for reports, meetings, documents and research.

Wipro says its employees create millions of prompts and have built thousands of AI agents.

Infosys is bringing Copilot to more than 100,000 employees.

Other tools help people with human resources and learning.

They also say responsible use requires training, leadership support and governance.
