Job roles created by AI, ChatGPT can pay salary of ₹2 cr a year: Report🧑🏻💻
Artificial intelligence and ChatGPT are on boom. AI tools have the potential to create jobs with high salaries.
Some media reports stated that the role of prompt engineers has emerged with the rise of AI which can pay a salary as high as $335,000 or ₹2 crores annually, according to a report published by Bloomberg news.

Its cards can be used at 100,000-plus merchant outlets across over 1,800 cities in India, and over 125 online sites.
Indian startups move dollars to Gift City, other countries from SVB🏦
In the aftermath of the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB), banking units at the International Financial Services Centre (IFSC) in Gujarat’s Gift City emerged as one of the several options for startups and tech companies.
Apart from Gift City, startups have also moved their funds to banks in the US, India, and overseas locations of Indian lenders based on their customer and supplier presence.
Primarily, tech startups with little client or supplier presence in the US have been moving their money out of the US to Indian bank accounts via transfer pricing.
