“We are designing generative AI offerings in conjunction with our partners for industry-specific solutions, cross-industry use cases and productivity enablement under themes like transforming code processes, improving the customer and employee experience, product innovations, software and coding, and knowledge management, to name a few,” the note said. “This collaboration will help shape the future of healthcare by simplifying and improving the accuracy of complex healthcare administrative tasks and by strengthening business outcomes for healthcare organizations,” the note added.

“Driven by our culture of innovation, embodied in our Bluebolt innovation movement that has already produced more than 3,000 gen AI ideas (and 35,000+ ideas overall), we’ve further expanded our capabilities with the Cognizant Neuro AI platform. It’s designed to speed the adoption of gen AI and harness its value in a flexible, secure, scalable and responsible way. With Neuro AI, we’re helping clients advance from identifying company-specific use cases to operationalizing AI,” he added in the note.
The CEO said, “Today, we have more than 100 active early client engagements in various stages with a focus on cognitive and generative AI, as well as hundreds more projects using AI services within the context of delivery.”
