Frequently Asked Questions

Before the pandemic, many organizations weren't racing to understand the role AI could play in driving innovation, boosting the productivity and profitability of the business. This was evident from a McKinsey (2019) survey that stated, only 58% of companies had incorporated AI into at least one process or product.

Since the pandemic struck, investment in AI platforms has skyrocketed, shifting from a "nice-to-have" initiative to a full-blown business imperative. In India alone, the AI adoption rate has been rising, and by 2023 at least 50% of enterprise applications will have embedded AI functionality built within the system. And by 2025, AI will have become integral to businesses.

With the pandemic pushing businesses to adopt automation, there is a demand for professionals with AI expertise who can help contribute and strengthen the organization's digital initiatives. Therefore, going forward, professionals honing AI expertise will only become valuable.

Companies that are at the forefront of AI and other emerging technologies will thrive in the post-COVID world. AI has remained in high demand despite the pandemic, with hiring growth for these jobs increasing by 32% since 2019. Another World Economic Forum report states that over 133 million new roles will surface due to AI/ML and create nearly 58 million new jobs by 2022.

The top job search sites like LinkedIn report that vacancies in the realm of AI and Machine Learning are growing endlessly. AI opportunities are aplenty and will continue to be so even in the future. Looking at the present scenario, building AI/ML expertise is crucial for the future and for your professional development.

To benefit from this opportunity, IIIT Hyderabad and TalentSprint offer PG Certification Program in AI/ML, a 9 months in-depth and comprehensive program designed for working professionals to equip with AI/ML expertise. The program is delivered jointly by India's #1 ML Lab at IIIT Hyderabad and TalentSprint.

Your peer group reflects an outstanding group of professionals in Leaders, Managers, Analysts, and Developers roles across diverse industries.

Since its launch in January 2018, the program has witnessed the participation of over 2500+ tech professionals from 750+ globally leading organizations.

In recent years, the need for understanding AI and exploiting its potential has expanded far beyond the techies sitting in the research lab and developers trying to show PoC on a miniature data set. It is now the need of the hour for professionals to have a working knowledge of AI and use this disruptive technology in their area of work effectively.

If you are a Business Leader and CXO of an organization, large or small, MNC or a startup, you need to use the disruptive power of AI to make your product/service valuable to your customers. When you understand how AI can be used as a competitive advantage and a decision-making tool, you will build a strong organization.

One can argue that a business leader can recruit professionals with AI knowledge. However, as always, everything starts at the top. To adopt this disruptive technology, you need to build a culture of data-based decision-making, which is possible only when the top management is part of the process.

If you are a Product/Project Manager, your responsibility will likely include a good proportion of AI. If not today, you will soon see the type of problems you manage change completely. To be intelligent in your discussion with your customer/team, you need to get the right perspective on AI.

If you are a Developer or an Analyst, building expertise in AI will enable you to stay ahead of the competition. It is clear that AI is evolving faster than ever, and one needs to keep up with the trends to cope with the career challenges ahead. As a developer, you need to be at the forefront of building AI applications and keep yourself updated with the latest techniques and toolchains.
