HYDERABAD (Reuters) -McDonald’s plans to “double down” on its artificial intelligence investment by 2027 and is betting on India as a key hub for data governance, engineering and platform architecture, a senior executive told Reuters on Friday.
We’re still in the early stages, so it’s hard to pin down the exact investment, McDonald’s head of Global Business Services operations, Deshant Kaila said at an event.
Kaila said the fast-food giant’s India push will centre on building its AI team, but added that spending will lean more toward technology and tools, not headcount.
