There’s a common perception that artificial intelligence (AI) will help streamline our work. There are even fears that it could wipe out the need for some jobs altogether.
But in a study of science laboratories I carried out with three colleagues at the University of Manchester, the introduction of automated processes that aim to simplify work — and free people’s time — can also make that work more complex, generating new tasks that many workers might perceive as mundane.
Insight Enterprises (NASDAQ: NSIT), a Fortune 500 solutions integrator helping organisations accelerate their digital journey, today released its Trends Report, outlining five technology trends Insight experts predict will impact business strategy in 2023. The report highlights themes of simplification, cybersecurity, the evolution of the workforce, automation and AI, and Superapps as trends that will be key to business and IT decision makers in 2023.
