‘Sooner or later…': Paytm founder sees impact of AI on jobs as ‘inevitable'; says artificial intelligence will also create new roles

The impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on jobs is "inevitable", according to founder Vijay Shekhar Sharma, who said AI will become part of routine business processes sooner rather than later. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now 'Sooner or later we will have to start using AI as an employee or even as a CFO,' Sharma said at an AI-focused event in New Delhi. He said AI will eventually perform most tasks currently done by humans, and stressed the need to build core products instead. Sharma also outlined a broader vision for the company — to move beyond its fintech roots and become an AI-first firm, according to an ET report. Although AI will automate several human functions, Sharma said it will also create fresh roles in the workforce. The remarks come at a time when Paytm's parent, One97 Communications, is undergoing job cuts. ET reported last month that the company had laid off an unspecified number of employees. The overall sales team headcount dropped by about 3,500 in the March 2024 quarter, taking the total to 36,521. This decline was largely linked to the Reserve Bank of India's restrictions on Paytm Payments Bank operations. In the March quarter, Paytm posted a consolidated net loss of Rs 540 crore, compared with Rs 550 crore in the year-ago period. In June, Paytm stood third in the UPI rankings with 1.27 billion transactions worth Rs 1.34 lakh crore — accounting for 6.9% of total volume and 5.6% of value. PhonePe remained in the lead with 8.55 billion transactions valued at Rs 11.99 lakh crore. As part of its AI initiatives, Sharma announced a new passbook feature that would use Paytm's data to generate a rap song summarising monthly expenses. Though no launch date has been shared, Sharma said it would be made available to users soon. Paytm had earlier partnered with US-based AI startup Perplexity to introduce AI-powered search capabilities in its app.

ED attaches assets worth over Rs 762 crore in PACL case

The money-laundering probe of 2015 stems from a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) FIR against Pearl Agrotech Corporation Limited (PACL), PGF Limited, its main promoter, late Nirmal Singh Bhangoo, and others for operating 'fraudulent' investment schemes to deceive investors. A provisional order has been issued under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) to attach the 68 immovable properties located across Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, Maharashtra, and in Australia, the central probe agency said in a statement. New Delhi, Jul 12 (PTI) Assets worth more than Rs 762 crore of PACL (the Pearls Group) and its promoters have been attached under the anti-money laundering law in a case linked to an alleged Rs 48,000 crore Ponzi scheme, in which numerous investors were duped, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) said on Saturday. Through these schemes, PACL and its directors 'defrauded' the investors of about Rs 48,000 crore, the ED said. 'The funds fraudulently collected from lakhs of gullible investors were systematically diverted and layered through multiple transactions to conceal their illicit origin,' the agency added. The attached assets are in the name of Bhangoo, his family members and entities related to PACL, it said. The total value of these properties is Rs 762.47 crore, the ED said. Bhangoo died in August last year. PTI NES RC This report is auto-generated from PTI news service. ThePrint holds no responsibility for its content.

Construction workers to hold protest march tomorrow

Mangaluru: Karnataka State Construction Workers Federation Dakshina Kannada district president, Vasantha Achari, said that the forum will hold a protest march in the city on Monday, demanding an uninterrupted supply of sand and laterite stones in the district. Achari told reporters here on Saturday, that over 1.2 lakh construction workers registered through the labour department and an equal number of unregistered labourers in the district are jobless due to the sand and laterite stone shortage crisis. "Due to the current shortage of laterite stone and sand, construction and building activities came to a halt permanently in some places and partially in others. Workers in the construction industry have been without work for over a month, making it difficult for them and their families to sustain their livelihoods. People put their plans to build homes on hold, causing distress. The lack of raw materials indirectly affected truck workers, shopowners, labourers, traders and financial institutions on a large scale," Achari said, demanding a govt policy to make sand and laterite stones available for construction. He said the Sand Bazaar app of the mines and geology department is not functioning properly. Meanwhile, sand from other places is expensive, costing around Rs 22,000 per load. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Providers are furious: Internet access without a subscription!
