With automation, processes can perform in ways that optimize the amount of human support needed. This shift moving the burden of processes from humans to technology has the potential to redesign the way work gets done within an enterprise.

And with the application of artificial intelligence, these point robotic process fixes have now evolved into intelligent interactions and processes.
