MOHAMMED RAFEE TARAFDAR, chief technology officer (CTO) of Infosys, is driving the information technology (IT) services firm's artificial intelligence (AI) strategy.
Over 250,000 Infosys employees are trained in GenAI

Tarafdar, in a video interview with Shivani Shinde, talked about what the company is doing to implement the strategy. Edited excerpts:

How is Infosys' AI-first strategy being implemented and how do you quantify the impact? 

AI-first essentially means, can we have AI embedded into every aspect of work and it also creates value. We focused on three areas: How do we amplify human potential; second, how to unlock value and finally; and how do we transform our operating model and talent so that they are future-ready.

To give an instance on amplifying human potential, for developers, especially those who are into coding and testing, we launched a number of code assistants. We have 14,000 developers who are using this for a lot of internal work. We are also using these code assistants in some of our clients' environments, with prior permission Similarly, learning for us is big.
