How to automate the enterprise in four steps

By the end of this year, humans will account for 58% of all work completed, with machines managing the remaining 42%. Among the growing types of automated technologies is robotic process automation (RPA), which focuses on software robots and AI emulating human actions. According to research, the RPA market will reach an estimated $23.9 billion by 2030, up from $2.09 billion in 2020. More organisations are jumping on the automation bandwagon as the eradication of manual tasks, the requirement to increase output and the need to reduce costs move to the top of business’ wish lists, says David Brakoniecki, managing director, BP3 Europe.

Towards helpful robots: Grounding language in robotic affordances

August 16, 2022 – Over the last several years, we have seen significant progress in applying machine learning to robotics. However, robotic systems today are capable of executing only very short, hard-coded commands, such as “Pick up an apple,” because they tend to perform best with clear tasks and rewards. They struggle with learning to perform long-horizon tasks and reasoning about abstract goals, such as a user prompt like “I just worked out, can you get me a healthy snack?”, says Brian Ichter and Karol Hausman, research scientists, Google Research, Brain Team.
