Can AI and automation be humanized? with Hessie Jones

Excitement around technologies like AI and automation tends to focus on the amazing things it can do. But what about the things it should or shouldn’t do? In this episode of Connected & Ready, host Gemma Milne is joined by Hessie Jones, co-founder of MyData Canada, to get under the surface of how companies might approach these technologies in terms of mission, values, and privacy to make them more human-centered. Amid the excitement about possibilities, what should companies be concerned about? How can models and sources of data reduce bias? And of course, what will the future of AI and automation look like? Microsoft Power Automate is helping organizations digitize paper processes and automate time-consuming, manual tasks. By bringing together robotic process automation, digital process automation, and AI together on a single platform, Power Automate serves the entire spectrum of an organization’s automation needs.
