India’s AI Dilemma

In The Economic Times , BCG’s Ashish Garg and Tiger Tyagarajan explain the importance of addressing India’s drastic shortage of AI experts. While AI specialists will be essential in the long term, integrating AI into current systems and workflows is crucial to building a broader workforce that can use the technology effectively. “Companies with 100,000 employees worldwide can’t rely solely on hiring new talent—they must also reskill their current employees,” Tyagarajan adds, underscoring that by equipping existing workforces with AI skills, India can position itself as a leader in the technology.
