Agility in adapting to technology really important'
Business Standard|May 27, 2024
AMITH SINGHEE, director of IBM Research Lab India and chief technology officer (CTO) of IBM India & South Asia, believes all companies have to be "very aware" about technology. In a video interview with Shivani Shinde, he talked about Research Lab's role and generative artificial intelligence (GenAI). Edited excerpts:

How does IBM Research's work help IBM?

IBM Research Lab works very closely with all the business units of the company. We have two main goals in research. First is to be the growth engine for IBM. Our organic innovation drives growth in different businesses, and the second is to shape the future of computing.

Our role is like a spotlight for the company to understand what's happening with the state-of-the-art technology and to shape some of that, especially in the computing stack and link that with the businesses and with the product units.

Just because somebody figured out how to read images with a computer doesn't mean that it's ready for consumption in the enterprise system. A lot of research challenges need to be addressed.

How should one look at technology, especially the speed at which it is changing?
