“AI Appreciation Day is a timely reminder of the transformational role artificial intelligence plays in securing our connected world. As we navigate an increasingly uncertain digital world, AI-powered cybersecurity has become essential in enabling stronger, more adaptive defenses. The global AI cybersecurity market is projected to reach $93.75 billion by 2030, growing at a remarkable CAGR of 24.4 percent, a reflection of the trust being placed in AI to keep pace with emerging digital threats.
At Quick Heal Technologies Limited, we recognized the potential of AI a few decades ago and have built our entire innovation strategy around it. As the only cybersecurity company from India to be part of the United States Artificial Intelligence Safety Institute Consortium, we deeply understand its responsible use. For us, AI is not just an enabler, it is a foundational capability we are continuously investing in and refining. At the heart of this strategy is GoDeep.AI, our patented malware hunting engine that powers both Quick Heal and Seqrite solutions. Using deep learning and behavioral analytics, it identifies and neutralizes threats in real time enabling a stronger, faster defense against today’s evolving threat landscape.
Our recent innovations build on this momentum as well. Launched last year, AntiFraud.AI, India’s first comprehensive fraud prevention solution, reflects our commitment to safeguarding citizens in a rapidly evolving digital financial landscape where fraud is becoming more sophisticated by the day. On the enterprise side, Seqrite Intelligent Assistant (SIA), brings AI to the center of security operations with conversational threat intelligence that simplifies and accelerates decision-making for security teams.
Through every product and breakthrough, we remain focused on reimagining cybersecurity through the lens of responsible AI making security simpler, sharper, and more effective for every user we serve.”
Harsha Solanki, VP GM Asia, Infobip
“Over the years, Artificial Intelligence has emerged as a revolutionising force that changes the way we innovate and interact with technology. At Infobip, we see AI evolving from a support tool to an autonomous agent driving the future of customer experience. With the rise of Agentic AI and platforms like our Customer Experience Orchestration Platform (CXOP), brands can now deliver truly proactive, contextual, and personalised conversations across the customer journey. Whether guiding users from a social ad into a WhatsApp chat or resolving queries before they’re even raised, AI is enabling experiences that are seamless, smart, and scalable. On AI Appreciation Day, we celebrate the shift from reactive engagement to intelligent orchestration, where every interaction is an opportunity to build trust and long-term value.”

“With the global AI market projected to reach $1.85 trillion by 2030, it’s clear that AI has gone far beyond automation. Over 78% of companies worldwide are already using AI, nearly doubling their usage in the past two years. Sectors and businesses, including accounting and finance, cybersecurity, sales, supply chain, logistics, and IT operations, are leveraging AI’s ability to process vast data volumes, generate content, bridge skill gaps, and handle complexity to scale operations.
With AI in logistics, used for route optimization, demand forecasting, autonomous vehicles, and data intelligence, it is transforming the industry, leading to increased efficiency, lower costs, and enhanced overall reliability. The AI logistics market is expected to grow from $18.01 billion in 2024 to $549 billion by 2033. As we use AI to optimize each step in the supply chain, we move toward achieving this goal with greater efficiency and precision, driving smarter, faster, and more resilient logistics operations. On AI Appreciation Day, we celebrate these groundbreaking advances that continue to reshape the world.”

“It is not an overstatement to say that the adoption of AI is moving at breakneck speed. The ease of using generative AI to create and enhance content is having a far-reaching impact on people’s lives. AI tools and capabilities continue to evolve. Unfortunately, the AI-based tools that are powering innovation, productivity, and efficiency in business are also being used by cyber attackers to develop and scale increasingly complex, sophisticated, and evasive cyber threats. The most advanced AI-based threats can adapt in real-time and target vulnerabilities to exploit. The attackers only need to succeed once, with one user or security gap – the cybersecurity tools that defend against them need to succeed 100% of the time. Organisations need their own, powerful multimodal AI security that can detect and neutralize AI-based attacks regardless of whether they are delivered in an image or a QR code, and even if the language and sender seem completely legitimate.”
