Forrester Predicts Indian Firms Face AI Reckoning

Forrester analysts visiting India on December 3, 2025, forecast that organizations will face an AI reckoning in 2026, with half of G20 nations mandating domestically tuned models and a quarter of Indian CIOs likely to be asked to bail out business-led AI failures. They warn rapid generative AI deployment without governance will produce system errors and reputational risk, and predict private sovereign hybrid cloud demand will grow as enterprises prioritise compliance and AI training.
