Quick Glance: Apple announces event on May 7

Apple will host an event on May 7, where the long-awaited revamped versions of the iPad Pro and iPad Air are expected to be revealed.

These new models would signify Apple's first major overhaul of this product line since 2018, as iPad sales have decreased, prompting the company to introduce new products to stimulate demand.

In the first quarter, iPad sales dropped by 25% to $7.02 billion, alongside a slowdown in iPhone sales.

The event is scheduled to commence at 7 a.m. PT, corresponding to 2 p.m. GMT, and Apple is also preparing for its Worldwide Developers Conference from June 10 to June 14.

Quick Glance: AI Revolutionizing Call Centers: TCS Insights

The head of Tata Consultancy Services predicts chatbots will reduce the need for human call center agents significantly, revolutionizing the industry.

TCS's generative AI projects have doubled in value to $900 million by March, highlighting the increasing demand for tech talent and the need for workforce training.

Reports suggest that overall IT services growth is affected by global uncertainties like inflation, war, and elections, leading to a decline in spending and slower revenue growth for companies like TCS and Infosys.

Infosys anticipates a modest 1-3% sales growth in the upcoming financial year due to customers delaying discretionary spending on new tech projects amidst the current economic climate.
