This investment includes equipping you with the skills to stay on top of this fast-evolving technology, while ensuring that we have the cognitive and skillset diversity our clients need,\u201d the email said.<\/p>\n<p>Kumar said Cognizant is training 25,000 people in gen AI and it will be launching AI studios in Bengaluru, London, and San Francisco. \u201cWe\u2019re also infusing gen AI into all our core offerings. For example, we\u2019ve introduced a gen AI-enabled conversational virtual assistant (VA) that\u2019s designed to help enterprises reimagine experiences beyond chatbots. This VA provides an enhanced enterprise and semantic search to drive efficient information retrieval with personalised and pattern-based recommendations through a seamless platform integration (Microsoft Teams, ServiceNow). Using this virtual assistant, our clients can boost their productivity by 25% and improve their digital score through predictive resolution and contextual knowledge search,\u201d Kumar wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Cognizant, he said, is embedding gen AI in the foundation of how it works. \u201cFrom coding companions to contract risk management, to making it easier to find what you need, we\u2019re putting the power of AI at your service and doing so in a secure, responsible and scalable way. Consider our gen AI-based interview bot, which can conduct interviews with candidates, highlight their strengths and weaknesses and provide supporting examples. This bot offers an empathetic experience to candidates and a short list of promising candidates to our recruiters ahead of client interviews,\u201d the email said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cognizant CEO Ravi Kumar has said in an email to employees on Monday that the company has more than 100 active early client engagements with a focus on cognitive and generative AI, as well as hundreds more projects using AI services within the context of delivery. \u201cGiven gen AI\u2019s potential to create a new wave of opportunities for us, we expect to invest about $1 billion over the next three years in strengthening our gen AI capabilities.
