OpenText™ "The Future of Information: Extreme Automation and Extreme Connectivity"
We’re in the middle of a Digital Revolution. Like previous industrial revolutions, similar forces are having significant impact. From innovations in mechanization in the early 18th century to mass production in the late 19th century and ensuing developments in computing, two forces are causing massive change, and they are extreme automation and extreme connectivity.
Extreme automation describes an increasing reliance on robotics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in all aspects of our lives. It includes disruptive technologies like three-dimensional (3-D) printing, the Internet of Things (IoT), machine-to-machine communications (like sensors), and cognitive systems.
