World changed forever

Hello Friends,

Due to pandemic world has changed forever. This is challenging technology world to scale up. In this article, I am trying to find out which technologies will be on forefront to help businesses and individuals. The following technologies will be compelling not only for running businesses but to survive in post pandemic world.

1. Robotic Process Automation

Earlier various businesses were using this as a tool to get the benefits of rearranging creative staff to work on most critical business scenarios and allowing bots to handle the mundane task. However, now RPA will become more crucial for businesses to keep running and survive. With cognitive and intelligent RPA businesses will be able to remove the dependency on human for repetitive work but will be able to run the services without any manual intervention during any unprecedented human service shortage. This will become new norm and must have tool for every business in near future. Small businesses will start moving towards it more quickly by forming specialised core teams. Supply chain will have to accommodate RPA in core design to reduce human touches as much as possible.

2. AI and Big Data

Artificial intelligence and Big Data for predictive analysis and descriptive analysis was a choice of tool to handle most complex business problems. Post covid-19  world  will have serious consideration on this to make it compelling component  of each process  design. Most of the businesses will design new AI algorithms and use big data to handle customer information. Like personal information handling rules, soon new rules will be formed on handling and processing data. Digital platforms will come up with new ways to understand digital activities to assist individual customers with more choices. New avenues will be opened up for businesses and individuals to connect and do the business and then this will become a new way of life. Those businesses will not asses and take the required measures quickly, will have to face tough survival challenges.

3. IoTs

In the new world, smart devices will take over on all the households. Humans will be trained to use them during early childhood. People without this knowledge will not be able to cope up with changed world. Businesses  will be using new techniques to make more intelligent devices to communicate, entertain and help in daily chores. Smart homes will become more cheap and affordable as the technology will come up with efficient and cheaper options. Governing bodies will change policies to encourage people for sharing data on  IoT platform to monitor health related data and support with essential services. Aged and challenged people will be mandated to be in such place for remote monitoring.

4. Digital Security

With so much of technological advancement and faster movement into the new world, new threats will come up. Most  of the people will be on digital platform for creating contents or supporting the platform. Those are either have any criminal background or not able to adapt the new world will create digital threat. Governing bodies, Businesses and individuals will be compelled to make more secure transactions. This will open up a new battlefield which will become more intense than ever. With increased number  of users, digital security will become must have feature. All products and services will have to declare how digital security feature is enabled and assure users on capabilities of digital combat techniques.

These  are only few things noted here, there are many more things like drone, autonomous vehicles and 3D technologies will have notable impact.

We are working on digitisation for few decades now, but like this we were never challenged to scale up for the entire world. We have to adapt to this new world without much complaints as we always  proved that we are most intelligent species and with high survival instinct.

Happy reading and get ready for the new world.
