BENGALURU, India, January 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/: Infosys (NSE: INFY) (BSE: INFY) (NYSE: INFY), a global leader in next-generation digital services and consulting, today announced the expansion of its collaboration with Siemens AG, a leading technology company, to accelerate its digital learning initiatives with generative AI. The collaboration aims to provide over 250,000 Siemens’ people globally with upskilling opportunities, and a personalized learning and growth experience. As part of the collaboration, Siemens’ My Learning World, a digital learning platform that is accessible from anywhere anytime, will leverage Infosys Topaz, an AI-first offering using generative AI technologies, and Infosys Wingspan, an AI-powered next-gen enterprise learning experience platform.
Some of the salient features of the improved platform include: an AI-powered knowledge assistant, which acts as a learning companion and provides instant answers and personalized recommendations for the user. The platform also has an AI-assisted content authoring feature that generates tailored content in multiple languages. An AI chatbot assists learners in real-time – navigating courses, explaining complex concepts, and leads them to additional study resources if needed. There’s also a virtual tutor that streamlines content with features like summary generation, content translation, and learning style selection.
Jenny Lin, Global Head of Learning & Growth at Siemens AG, said, “A thriving learning and growth environment is essential for Siemens to maintain our competitive edge and foster innovation. By providing our people with the tools, resources, and support they need to continuously develop their skills, we empower our people to meet the challenges of the future.
