Davos 2025 News: Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the focus points of the World Economic Forum (WEF) meeting in Davos. HCL Tech Chairperson Roshni Nadar Malhotra, recognising the role that AI plays and will play in the years to come, shared some insights on the matter in an interview to NDTV. Ms Malhotra said AI is the "most democratised" technology compared to some of the tech that came before it. "I think the operative word is 10 years because people don't realise that even when tech revolutions come, they take a certain period of time before adoption. And what's been great about AI is that perhaps in comparison to some of the tech innovations from before, it's the most democratised at the moment," the Chairperson of one of the most impressive firms that India has anywhere in the world told NDTV. "If you look at young people today, everybody is already using this open source architecture and tech in their everyday lives for productivity. If I look 10 years from now, I think it will certainly become like how the internet is in the way people and companies use it," Ms Malhotra said.
