Welcome to the Institute of Internal Auditors New Zealand, the professional body for internal auditing
Artificial Intelligence, Robotic Process Automation, Machine Learning, Digital Labour... there's a lot of jargon and buzz words flying around when it comes to the new technologies that can broadly be categorised as "Intelligent Automation". There's also a lot of hype about impending mass unemployment.
This talk will give an overview of what these technologies are and the benefits that organisations are seeing from their use. It will cover the possibility of job loss and the risks and opportunities that these new technologies present to Internal Audit and Risk professionals.
