It's like.a vicious cycle. These tech companies get all of these Indian CEOs (why? one started and since these people don't think, then everyone else goes, "oh, me too"), then these CEOs hire more of their peers (either H1Bs or straight in India).

The Indian workforce is good at politics due to their cast system, but mediocre at doing the work.

BEFORE YOU GET UPSET, I'm just repeating what my brother-in-law who is from India said.

There is ZERO innovation coming out of India, AI or otherwise. India's only asset is cheap labor and always will be.

Tech centers in places like Banagalore are a Potemkin Village. Walk 1 mile outside any of these tech centers and you will see people sh!tt!ng in the street.

Nice try, but Tata will likely never consider buying IBM if they do due diligence. I wouldn't trust Alvind or any of his Pipmunks, including Rob the Slob, to sit the right way on a toilet seat, let alone run a company as big as Tata, except into the ground (now that is byebye). And Tata owns Air India, and look how the investigation of the Air India Boeing 787 Dreamliner crash on June 12 is turning out. Not a pretty picture or a rosy future. Maybe selling to a company like HCL would be a better bet and make more sense, but Alvind and Pipmunks should be sent packing.

TATA buys IBM and IBM goes byebye. Arvind leaves with $400,000,000 like Gerstner and becomes chairman of TATA (byebye). Heehee.

AI is a bubble... It will burst sooner than later... What is left after the bubble pops? Who knows! But certainly a lot of people who rushed into AI jobs will loose their jobs!

You gotta be kidding me !

"According to a joint survey conducted by IBM and Oxford Economics, India is at the forefront of AI adoption. The study noted that 78 per cent of Indian executives see decision-making as the top benefit of agentic AI." If AI adoption continues at the rapid pace, it could mean 90% or more (guesstimate) of those Indian employees in the office will likely be out of a job which is taken over by AI; more than likely this will fuel economic disruption and it will come crashing down on Modi's and Alvind's heads, as chaos ensues. Alvind attempted to do this inside IBM in the US in 2024 by laying off thousands of employees, by saying their jobs would be replaced by AI. Has it been any thing but a success ? Or has the loser been covering up his failures ? You can run but you can't hide from the inevitable.
