INDIA'S IT MACHINE IS BREAKING | How is the industry growing while the jobs are vanishing?
A Think School case study on why India's IT services industry is growing without adding jobs. The presenter traces the industry from Y2K work to a pyramid of cheap, high-volume labour billed by the hour, argues large language models are strongest at exactly that repetitive base work, and explains the "AI deflation" problem for firms that bill for people instead of results. He ends with four steps for engineers. The caption text covers the whole 17 minute video. The figures (Infosys 8.2 percent AI revenue, TCS cutting 8,000 roles, fresher hiring falling from about 600,000 to 120,000, 2.3 million AI openings by 2027) are the presenter's claims and were not independently checked.
