Hyperscience’s Second Annual Automation Pulse Report
A new study by Hyperscience details insights into the evolving attitudes and knowledge around automation and how it’s employed. The study focuses on how the American workforce views it.
Report on the knowledge gap in automation
Automation closes the gap between human potential and the ever-expanding list of duties and obligations that exist today.
The survey noticed a 100-percentage increase in replies that claim automation is killing jobs. This is attributed to layoffs, skill shortages, and complicated workplace relationships on the rise this year. Business leaders must raise employee awareness of automation and its ability to provide new possibilities. Only this can help them advance their firms in this new era.
