TCS will have as many AI agents as employees

TCS chairman N Chandrasekaran said the IT industry will no longer hire at the scale seen over the past two decades as artificial intelligence takes over parts of traditional work, signalling a structural shift for India’s $315-billion technology sector. “The company will not be hiring the kind of numbers it used to hire,” Chandrasekaran said at TCS’s 31st annual general meeting held virtually on Tuesday.
