Human V Automated Decision-Making: Have We Gone Too Far?
We have reached a critical crossroads in the digitisation and automation of processes within insurance and financial services. Some say that we have already gone too far and the human element is being continuously eroded, whereas others believe we have not gone far enough and that insurance and financial services continue to lag behind other professions. There is a fine balance to be struck.
This session is a pre-seminar webinar for our Flagship event "The Evolving Workplace in the 21st Century" happening on Thursday 9 October, Novotel, Leeds.
