It is a myth that artificial intelligence has the possibility of replacing human beings at the workplace. Quite on the contrary, employers are using it for the benefit of their staff and their performance. For instance, the chatbots we talk to are not really replacing the customer care personnel – they are in fact making their job easier.
Likewise, AI has plenty of applications for every aspect of the organization. Let’s check them out.

The ultimate idea behind it is to increase productivity and quality of performance in the organization.
