contribute to society thru management audits, cost audits

good article , but I have been hearing/reading this sentence that "Robot replaces humans'' since 1995 but I have not seen that physically yet in India. Also how far the positive work atmosphere, live emotions filled office environment will be there when 4 out of 5 my next cabins are seated by Robots. (i am not a leftist or union leader). I wish we could have robots in construction works, traffic control police works,, vip escorts....

Ramji the pace of adoption has increased in recent times. The benefits of 'automation' are 1. To increase productivity which will eventually lead to improvement of bottom line & also increase in customer satisfaction. Some of the areas you have mentioned will gradually come under the orbit of 'automation'...

Great article sir. Thanks for sharing. On the question of robotics, wouldnt buying robots (assuming they arent developed in house) maintaining them and running them over a period of time incur costs? (TCO). Second, as an asset they would depreciate over time, which means they ll need to be replenished every 10-15 years maybe. Humans on the other hand are supposed to become better with age professionally. My hunch is the robotics makes sense in companies that have reinvestment capital, rely traditionally on manual repititive jobs, and can develop these robotics on their own vs buying them from outside. What do you think? TCS has come out with a new AI Product called IGNIO, that aims to automate any manual heavy, redundant operations environment with complex processes by learning work and understanding context and promises a 25-30% cost savings.

Sajal appreciate your feedback. My response: 1. Cost of ownership: Of course it would require maintenance repair & everything else that a machine requires. But the benefits that it accords are significantly higher - precision, high quality workmanship etc... 2. Depreciation: It is beneficial for companies because it acts as a 'Tax Shield'. Other than tax shield - the money that is 'saved' over the useful life of the machine can be deployed to buy new robots. 3. Humans getting better with age: This may be true for jobs which require 2 functions - workmanship & craftsmanship. But not left brained activities. 4. Automation including Robotics will in due course take over all 'left brained jobs' - repetitive jobs being just 1 trait. 5. Make v/s buy: Automations / robotics is a specialised skill .. they cannot be cultivated in-house. 6. Reinvest Capital: I am unable to understand your point & hence cannot reply.. 7. IGNIO- is taking over Left brained jobs. 8. Automation / Robotics will lead to increase in productivity. Infosys has vowed to increase its employee's productivity using these very tools.
