Artificial intelligence (AI) and Robotic Process Automation (RPA) are popular buzzwords today, yet the practical applications for and approaches to these concepts are often less understood and (in many cases) may still be on the horizon.  However, there is a technology-driven differentiator within this overarching category that has been in use across a number of industries for some time.  Machine learning is the means by which a program analyzes a number of data sources and, by using algorithms, “learns” from that analysis to predict likely scenarios or future end-state resul

Today, where machines make decisions, the notion of the “right set of data” becomes a lot harder to understand. This is because machines learn differently than we do. In addition, the rationale for the output that they produce is more difficult to reconstruct.
