    According to research from the IBM Institute for Business Value, executives report using an array of transformative tools, including AI and automation technologies, to develop intelligent workflows and deliver rapid insights across ecosystems. Over the next two years, they expect a significant increase in extreme automation, powered by AI and machine learning.

    Executives in our survey are also increasing the use of intelligent workflows to monitor and take action, execute on scheduled events, and perform complex data analytics while making software-based decisions.

    Not surprisingly, they expect these digital labor-enabled advances to increase by 20% in the next two years.
