New Delhi, Dec. 11 -- Cognizant has set up a new Artificial Intelligence Lab and a Cognizant Moment Studio in Bengaluru to expand its work in enterprise technology. The move is part of the company's plan announced in 2023 to invest $1 billion in generative AI over three years. The two units will operate as a single hub focused on research, design, and development of AI systems for business use.
The AI Lab will work on applied research areas such as multi-agent models, decision automation and responsible AI.
