Procreating Robots: The Next Big Thing In Cognitive Automation?

The concept of automation in business and non-business functions has undergone more than a few evolutions along the way. The earliest types of automation-related applications could only carry out repetitive tasks such as printing and basic calculations. In a bid to save time and minimize human error, such applications were used by businesses and individuals to automate the tasks that, according to organizations, employees didn't need to waste their energy on. The eventually widespread adoption of IoT, AI and robotics resulted in the growth of cognitive automation to execute more challenging, diverse and multifaceted functions such as supply chain operations, robotic surgery, architecture and construction. The sheer accuracy and consistency of cognitive automation tools powered by AI and robotics allow organizations to evaluate data at lightning-quick speed, predict future trends in consumer demand patterns and formulate robust strategies and frameworks for improved operational efficiency and regulatory compliance.
