Humanity: The Key to Addressing 3 Common Automation Challenges
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is a kind of technology that allows a software program to execute repetitive tasks while using other software. It enables users to set up their own rules and conditions. Software can then register those actions and repeat them indefinitely when specific conditions are triggered.
Although this can provide useful assistance to white-collar workers who perform business processes, it’s something far from a human contribution in the workplace, representing a deterministic form of business process management.
Over the past few years, we’ve seen the advancement of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and analytics. With deep learning, you can train a neural network to mimic the human brain (just mimic, please) and, with machine learning, you can analyze huge amounts of data to find patterns that inform good decisions.
The strong advancements of these technologies are pervasive, and companies need to harness them to improve their operations.
What is intelligent automation?
The infusion of AI and analytics into RPA operations can create something amazing: intelligent automation (IA).
