Infosys Chairman Nandan Nilekani has emphasized that the rapid adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is likely to increase the demand for human skills rather than diminish it, even as businesses embrace AI-powered coding tools and autonomous AI agents.
In his message to shareholders in Infosys' FY26 annual report, Nilekani described AI as one of the most significant technological shifts in recent history. While acknowledging that automation will transform how work is performed, he argued that human expertise, creativity, and problem-solving abilities will remain indispensable.
