In recent years, artificial intelligence has aided in automating some monotonous jobs humans perform across industries. It has contributed to increasing the value humans deliver in their job roles. However, there is also concern that automation may replace people, leaving us with no viable employment opportunities. Where does artificial intelligence go from here? Does it go from good to better or worse? With this technology beginning to be really used in the workplace, the discussion is becoming more heated.
In this episode, we will discuss this with our guest speaker Amit Sharma, Management Consulting Manager at Accenture.
