TCS Expects AI Agents to Match Human Workforce Within Three Years, Says N Chandrasekaran

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) is poised to witness a major shift in its workforce structure, with Tata Sons Chairman N. Chandrasekaran predicting that the company will have as many AI agents as human employees within the next three years. Addressing shareholders at TCS’ 31st Annual General Meeting, Chandrasekaran said the company is rapidly expanding the deployment of AI agents across internal operations, customer solutions, and business processes as part of its long-term artificial intelligence strategy. He emphasized that AI is becoming a critical growth engine for the company and is transforming the way enterprises operate. According to Chandrasekaran, TCS has recorded strong momentum in its AI business, with AI-related revenues growing at a compound quarterly rate of over 22 percent during the past four quarters. The company’s annualised AI revenue reached USD 2.5 billion in the final quarter of FY26, reflecting increasing demand for AI-driven solutions. Rejecting concerns that artificial intelligence could threaten the IT services industry, he described AI as one of the most significant opportunities for enterprise technology. He highlighted five major growth areas emerging from AI adoption: modernization of legacy systems, AI-powered redesign of business processes, governance and management of AI agents, sovereign AI initiatives, and the rise of physical AI applications in industrial environments. Chandrasekaran noted that TCS has already launched sovereign AI projects in India and Europe, while also deploying AI-powered robotics solutions for global clients. He added that growing enterprise investments in AI are expected to drive technology spending worldwide over the next two years. Despite rapid technological change, TCS continues to maintain strong business performance. The company reported consolidated revenue of Rs 2.67 lakh crore in FY26, marking a 4.6 percent year-on-year increase, while net profit rose 8.8 percent to Rs 52,820 crore. TCS also secured contracts worth more than USD 40.7 billion during the fiscal year. He concluded that in the evolving AI landscape, trust, context, and deep client relationships will remain the most valuable differentiators for technology companies. Source: ANI

Eros Innovation Launches Cultural AI Platform Across 34 Languages

Eros Innovation has officially unveiled its Cultural AI Platform, introducing what it describes as the world’s first artificial intelligence ecosystem built to understand, preserve, and express culture across languages and digital experiences. Initially showcased at the IndiaAI Impact Summit in February 2026, the platform is now live in 34 global languages. At its core are two proprietary technologies—Eros LCVM (Large Cultural Voice Model) and Eros Persona AI—which together form the foundation of a new category the company calls “Cultural AI.” Unlike traditional AI models that primarily focus on language processing and content generation, the Cultural AI Platform is designed to capture cultural context, emotional expression, identity, and performance nuances. Eros says its LCVM technology can generate performances lasting up to five minutes while maintaining voice consistency, accurate lip-syncing, emotional depth, and cultural authenticity across multiple languages. The platform is powered by a rights-cleared dataset comprising more than 11,000 films and over 100,000 characters. It integrates multilingual voice generation, music creation, storytelling, character performance, and persistent digital identities within a unified AI architecture. Accessible through the Eros Universe Super App, the ecosystem enables creators to build, animate, and engage with culturally intelligent digital personas. The platform consists of five interconnected layers: Eros LCM for cultural intelligence and storytelling, Eros LCVM for voice, music, and performance generation, Eros Persona AI for persistent digital identities, Eros Creator for enterprise and creator tools, and Eros Universe as the consumer-facing distribution platform. The company emphasized that all AI-generated Personas are fictional identities and are not intended to replicate or represent real-world actors, performers, or public figures. Commenting on the launch, Ridhima Lulla, Co-Founder and Co-President of Eros Innovation, said the platform is the result of years of research focused on building AI systems capable of understanding culture rather than merely processing language. Founder and Chairman Kishore Lulla described LCVM as a significant step toward advancing India’s sovereign AI vision, calling it the voice layer that enables cultural intelligence to be experienced across 34 languages. The platform was formally launched by S. Krishnan, Secretary, Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), who highlighted the importance of developing AI technologies that preserve linguistic diversity, cultural heritage, and creative traditions as India strengthens its sovereign AI capabilities.
