PA's automation experts, Helena Moren and Simon Andersson, have had an article published in NyTeknik about the rise of smart machines and how Swedish companies are lagging behind that trend. The article outlines how robots and artificial intelligence will have a significant impact on business and finance, with the market for smart machines expected to be worth approximately SEK 130 billion by 2020. While predicting robots' impact on the labour market is more difficult, there is a high probability that the robots will bring new, high-end jobs and greater freedom for mankind. Helena and Simon explain that robotisation can release a comprehensive range of resources and can be used to increase efficiency and productivity. But, as revealed in a report presented at the Davos summit in January, Swedish companies are falling behind in this digitisation, mainly because they are not efficiently resourced to make these developments.
