One fine morning, I stumbled on this article, India’s HR Tech Market – An ignored billion-dollar pot of gold by PC Quest. Some figures as I read were confidence booster for my business.

From widespread fears about job loss to super intelligent robots that will eventually destroy humanity, there are many myths and misconceptions about the present and future adoption of automation tools – are they true?

We bust a few such myths.

Sounds incredible!

It’s true.  Kunal logged on to www.nlpbots.com, a Pune-based company that puts Artifical Intelligence (AI) to work in providing a chat-based interface for managing routine administrative tasks that are so repetitive in nature these can easily be delegated to computer programs.
