Indian IT firm Wipro has introduced a new Center of Excellence focused on Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) in collaboration with the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi.
Located at the Yardi School of Artificial Intelligence on the IIT Delhi campus, this Center of Excellence (CoE) will facilitate practical research in generative AI, according to a statement.
"We are excited to partner with IIT Delhi to foster accelerated innovation in some of the most exciting emerging areas of technology," said Subha Tatavarti, Chief Technology Officer at Wipro Limited. "This collaboration will not only enhance our research & development capabilities in emerging areas, such as generative AI but will also connect us with a talent pool that will help us build advanced solutions to address existing and emerging business problems."
This announcement follows Wipro's recent commitment to invest $1 billion in AI innovation.
The company further said that the CoE will act as a hub for research and development, uniting Wipro researchers with ScAI faculty members and graduate students. Their collaboration aims to tackle real-world challenges on a large scale. The Wipro CoE teams will work together to create inventive solutions using AI, ML (machine learning), and other technologies.
Professor Mausam, Head of the Yardi School of AI at IIT Delhi, said: "We are delighted to collaborate with Wipro to create new learning and growth opportunities for our students. Through the creation of this Center of Excellence, our students will gain valuable insight into problems of relevance to industry and will learn first-hand how their technical know-how transfers to commercial environments.”
In July, Wipro announced its plan to invest $1 billion over the next three years. This investment aims to improve their AI, data, and analytics abilities, strengthen their research and development, enhance the FullStride Cloud, and develop new consulting skills. The goal is to assist clients in embracing change and discovering fresh value using AI.
