to work out the least efficient parts of the model . “ At UiPath we give you a physical , schematic diagram of all their processes and all of the interdependencies . Based on that , we advise you where you can get the biggest returns for your automation .”
RPA may even herald a material change to the future of work , a future where machines may augment the capabilities of human workers by dealing with the less creative tasks . It ’ s a more positive , and perhaps more realistic , vision than the one where robots simply take all of our jobs instead . Giving the example of a hypothetical business analyst and the creative work they can do with data , Jackson emphasises the liberating potential RPA has . “ If you can get the robots to do all the drudge work , to stage data in a form factor that an analyst can then quickly view and chop stories from , you ’ re getting the maximum impact out of that human , and they don ’ t spend an ounce of time in the technical querying of data . They get to analyse the data and create stories that business owners can make good decisions with .” As for UiPath , the future is clear : “ We need to continue to lower the barriers . We need to continue to add skills to our robots , to make them useful , to continue to innovate in the space and just break the cycles we ’ ve been in for decades of having to do the work that we hate doing .”
