An independent team of academic researchers has therefore tried to understand the impact of these technologies… For this study, more than 400 business leaders, scientific engineers and experts were interviewed in the United Kingdom, the United States, Japan and India in the financial, insurance and manufacturing sectors. And the results were surprising…
In fact, and unlike many employees may fear, this report shows that technologies amplify the human experience and strengthen the link between training and growth. The results of this study show that companies that invest in automation, artificial intelligence and augmented workplaces achieve better performance and make the work environment more human.
