Ep4: How are AI agents changing business processes? with Mihir Shukla

Author: The Hindu July 6, 2024 Duration: 25:48
AI, robotics, and automation are transforming how work gets done across industries. One area driving major shifts is the automation of business processes. From manufacturing to finance to customer service, companies are using AI tools to streamline and optimize workflows that were previously handled manually.  This change is redefining the workplace and the skills needed to thrive in the modern economy. While some jobs will inevitably be replaced by automation, new roles are emerging that require humans to work with AI tools in novel ways. Joining me today to discuss whether the rise of automated business processes is a double-edged sword disrupting certain careers while creating new opportunities is Mihir Shukla, CEO and co-founder of Automation Anywhere, a leading robotic process automation company that serves companies in over 100 countries.  Host: John Xavier, Technology Editor, The Hindu Produced by Sharmada Venkatasubramanian

John Xavier, the tech editor at The Hindu, hosts The Interface, a podcast that sits at the crossroads where emerging technologies meet daily life and global business. Rather than just reporting on the latest gadgets or software updates, the conversations here dig into the tangible effects of AI, automation, and robotics-how these forces are actively reshaping entire industries and, by extension, the choices we all face. Each episode is built on the premise that understanding the trajectory of tech is less about predicting the future and more about developing a flexible, informed mindset for the changes already underway. You’ll hear thoughtful analysis on the implications behind the headlines, exploring not just what is happening, but why it matters for policy, work, and society. This isn't a series of breathless hype cycles; it's a grounded guide from a seasoned editor, offering clarity on a dynamic landscape that often feels overwhelming. Tune in for a consistently insightful perspective that helps make sense of the rapid evolution happening just beyond the screen.
