Automation is being done for things that are done by business users. If you were in IT and were doing things that can be automated, that means you were doing things wrong in the first place

In the words of Montgomery Burns...

"Well, DUH!"

I was working for 18 months to automate what our team did before jumping at the chance to VSP out of that place. Good riddance. Dont miss the headaches at all.

It doesn't take a genius to see that phase 1 is to outsource and offshore jobs. Phase 2 is to automate outsourced and offshored jobs. Just look at India getting wiped out right now.

This started years ago.

it's called Pega... the software doesn't work well or scale. Verizon was sold job automation tools that do not work.
