Automate

Data to replace humans.

## In short

Data to do automatically tasks once reserved for humans.

Moving from technical matters to more creative fields.

We have been evolving for some time: Wibbitz, Heliograf, Alibaba AI copywriting, etc.

The difference is not simply that it automates processes, but that it automates decision-making.

There are more and more cases, and they are more and more sophisticated.

Machines that make news, diagnoses, music, etc.
