Whether it is in physical form – as a helper during surgeries – or in software, as in a chatbot solution, we are all surrounded by a bevy of machines that influence our lives in very significant ways.That’s why it should come as no surprise that even the HR department of various organizations are considering using bots to replace their actual human resources!The irony is perhaps stark in this context, but it soon starts to make sense.

Gartner, for instance, has predicted that 80% of all end-to-end customer interactions will be replaced by interaction with chatbots.

No or Zero human involvement will occur because of chatbots at all.The truth is that chatbots have already started to change the HR industry, and it is only in a strictly projective sense that their impact may be considered hypothetical.More realistically, though, they have already made their mark.

If we consider the future, here are some of the ways in which they are likely to create further impact:Chatbots will overshadow mobile appsIt is predicted that the market for mobile apps will become quite saturated, given their current popularity.

AI is now a fairly developed technology.

It finds widespread use in multiple industries, like gaming, banking, commercial, retail, and government applications as well.

AI-driven machines are now creating the future of our convenience – they offer new opportunities and enhance efficiencies in production.Industrial Revolution 4.0 as it is called creates a stronger digital economy on the backbone of automated tasks, which allows it to reconfigure how people and machines interact with each other and collaborate to create the world as we experience it.

The first thing we think of when we think of AI is not how it can provide complex decision making in the manufacturing industry, or how it can solve issues related to information overload.

But it’s all happening, and the manufacturing industry is set to experience some of its biggest changes yet!

Robots can keep on doing the same activity over and over again, without getting tired or increasing the scope of error as time progresses – thus they are able to provide very high levels of quality assurance.Round the Clock ProductionRobots do not have the same human limitations that human workers have and can continue to work throughout the night as well as the day.
