Meet Your Post-Pandemic Coworker: An AI Bot

The COVID-19 pandemic has emptied the world's offices, sending most of us to work from home for the foreseeable future and facilitating a mass migration to the digital workplace. AMELIA ("AI ME AMELIA") from IPsoft can read 300 pages in 30 seconds, comprehend multiple languages (including logic and context), and is installed in more than 500 banks, insurance companies, and retail giants. PCMag Editor-in-Chief Dan Costa interviewed IPsoft CEO Chetan Dube in 2018, so we reached out to see what AMELIA is capable of in 2020, how it's helping with COVID-19 recovery plans, and whether we'll be welcomed back to our workspaces by AMELIA-like AI coworkers. PCMag: According to the World Economic Forum's The Future of Jobs Report, half of the world's employees will be digital by 2025. When you think about the amount of jobs that would be lost in that instance, it is imperative that businesses embrace the technology.
