Global Rush to Fund A.I.
March 10, 2020Robotic Process Automation
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) enables businesses to automate certain tasks and processes within offices, which allows employees to spend time on higher-value work.
Robotic Process Automation (RPA) enables businesses to automate certain tasks and processes within offices, which allows employees to spend time on higher-value work.
Google’s Duplex, which is a bot designed to make routine phone calls to other people, is an example of an RPA.
Amazon uses RPA to sift through resumes before prioritizing top candidates for review.
In banking, Blue Prism and Automation Anywhere help staff with repetitive work functions.
RPA will eventually augment staff and shift their productivity into higher gear. This will allow media and entertainment companies to make better real-time predictive decisions in a host of different areas, from customer service to cost savings.
