Infosys and Siemens AG to Advance AI-Powered Digital Learning

India’s tech giant Infosys today announced its collaboration with Siemens AG, a leading technology company, to advance its digital learning initiative with Gen AI. The collaboration aims to upskill 250,000 Siemens employees worldwide. 

The Siemens My Learning World platform, accessible from anywhere, will integrate Infosys Topaz, an AI-powered solution, and Infosys Wingspan, a next-generation digital learning platform.

 The enhancements include an AI-powered knowledge assistant, an AI-driven content authoring tool that generates learning materials in multiple languages, and an AI chatbot that helps users navigate courses and find additional resources. The platform will also feature a virtual tutor offering content summaries, translations, and personalised learning options.

Jenny Lin, global head of learning & growth at Siemens AG, emphasised the company’s commitment to equipping employees with the right tools, resources, and support for skill development, enabling them to adapt to future challenges.

"By leveraging GenAI on Siemens’ digital learning platform, we can foster a culture of lifelong learning and empower our teams to reach their full potential," Lin said. “Infosys' expertise in digital transformation and AI is very valuable in creating a more engaging and effective learning experience for everyone.”

On the other hand, Jasmeet Singh, executive vice president and global head of manufacturing at Infosys, underscored the transformative impact of AI on digital learning. He described Gen AI as a game-changer that enables organisations to create personalised, engaging, and effective learning experiences that drive development and innovation.

"Our collaboration with Siemens to help integrate Infosys Wingspan's generative AI capabilities, powered by Infosys Topaz, into My Learning World is a testament to Siemens’ commitment to providing their people with the best possible learning and growth opportunities,” Singh said. 

The Siemens My Learning World platform currently boasts 216,000 active users who have access to over 178,000 learning materials. Additionally, it is utilised by 27,000 factory workers on the shop floor and 65,000 employees through the My Skills feature, which assists users in identifying skill gaps and receiving course recommendations.

Additionally, a customer-facing learning platform is being developed with Infosys, offering over 300 technical courses for 50,000 external participants worldwide, including system integrators in the Siemens ecosystem.
