Intelligent Automation: Learn How to Harness Artificial Intelligence to Boost Business & Make Our World More Human
Welcome to the future, where robots don’t just vacuum floors – they revolutionize businesses. Intelligent Automation is the first comprehensive reference book dedicated to what many are calling the next big thing in artificial intelligence. Also known as Hyperautomation, this trend blends machine learning, robotic process automation (RPA), low-code tools, and good old human intelligence to create serious impact across every industry you can imagine.
Whether you’re a seasoned tech veteran, a curious newcomer, or just someone wondering how automation could make life better (or at least free you from repetitive tasks), this book has something for you. It cuts through the buzzwords to answer the big questions: What exactly is Intelligent Automation? Why is it spreading so fast? And how can it help not just your company, but your planet?
Spoiler alert: IA is not just about efficiency. Yes, it can generate 20 to 60 percent gains in productivity, but it can also help fight hunger, boost global education budgets, support pandemic response, and even save millions of lives each year. Not bad for a set of algorithms and bots.
Inside, you’ll find:
- Lessons learned from over 100 successful (and not-so-successful) IA transformations
- Access to 500 real-world IA use cases, organized by industry and function
- Insights drawn from 200 global experts who live and breathe IA every day
This book is backed by serious credentials. Authors Pascal Bornet, Ian Barkin, and Dr. Jochen Wirtz bring a powerhouse combination of consulting expertise, entrepreneurial grit, and academic depth. Together, they provide a balanced, clear-eyed look at how Intelligent Automation is transforming work, business, and society at large.
If you’re ready to understand the real potential of IA and how to use it wisely, this book is your starting point. Read it to prepare, adapt, and automate your way to a smarter future.
