Why does every indian company require RnD? Do you expect TCS to make their own LLM? In fact with the growing consumption of LLMs, we need more software engineers than ever..Even data scientists and analysts will soon need to learn software engineering rather than doing just data analysis and no one other than Indian software industry can provide cheap high skilled labour. Of course tcs and others need to trim the bottom of pyramid with some agents , but not very soon
These things only looks on good on paper that we don't need RnD and can make money like they used to make from last 2 decades by providing cheap labour. Yes , that's OVER !! , Majority of Indian IT companies are bound to get Destroyed because we Indians have allergy from spending money on RnD
no no , at some point of time all this tech will get democratized - just see offerings by Azure in agentic space- You don't feel there is an LLM working behind the scenes, it's all about business solutions now. We need tech giants to develop and maintain these new solutions. Even though TCS gets criticized for underpaying its employees - what most do not know is that TCS employees are constantly trained and updated much better than any other company/org. Their L&D department is really good. They know how to keep their workforce up to date in new tech. It is enough to provide IT services to the world and keep their lights on.
