[QUOTE="Jacob Robinson, post: 1453615, member: 18849"] Being in and out of IT roles for many years now, I have to agree. So many companies are so disjointed in their business practices that the idea a piece of software is going to be installed to use AI to fix it all is completely laughable. If a company is so well put together that this is even possible, they are probably so efficient already it would not be worth the trouble. I think AI automation may work in some narrow areas: people who act like robots might be replaced by one. But then it is then hyped up by click-bait journalists as though it will take over everything ([I]so hurry up with that basic income![/I]). Just like when nano bots were going to revolutionize everything twenty years ago. Thirty years ago fuzzy logic and neural networks were going to revolutionize everything. Meanwhile, I know of companies that still use keypunch operators. [/QUOTE]
