The Globe and Mail reports in its Wednesday, Jan. 28, edition that business and technology consulting firm CGI has signed a collaboration deal with Microsoft-backed OpenAI to help clients adopt artificial intelligence across their operations. A Canadian Press dispatch to The Globe reports that CGI chief technology officer Dave Henderson says the agreement builds on a successful, multiyear pilot program in the United Kingdom. The deal will see CGI integrate OpenAI's training resources into its AI literacy program. CGI also will expand its use of OpenAI's ChatGPT Enterprise platform by its thousands of consultants and experts under the new agreement. The company says clients will benefit from teams who not only understand the technology, but know how to apply it in real-world environments. CGI has 94,000 consultants and professionals across the globe that provide business and technology consulting services.
