In 2019, large companies, with 39 percent share, had the highest share of professionals working in the artificial intelligence industry in India. This was followed by start-ups, with mid-sized companies ranking third. That year, the total workforce in this sector had almost doubled. There was a large influx of freshers as well.
Use of AI in India
Being the land of over 100 recorded languages, translation is an important aspect of living in India. To support this challenge, the government planned to use AI for machine translation. The south Asian country was pronounced to be one of the leading nations for implementing artificial intelligence. Various government bodies approved a multi-billion-rupee national mission that involved the use of AI, machine learning, deep learning, big data analytics, quantum computing, communication, and encryption to name a few. Pilot projects were launched in the agriculture and healthcare sector.
