Mihir Shukla welcomes the Tech Field Day audience. He illustrates the business imperative in adopting the RPA platform to building a Digital Workforce.

In his presentation at Tech Field Day 19, Mihir Shukla underscores the journey and vision behind Automation Anywhere and its Robotic Process Automation (RPA) platform. He describes his own evolution from a passionate developer who initially saw programming as a form of art to an innovator aiming to solve the significant inefficiencies created by using human labor to connect disparate software applications. This realization led him to found his sixth startup, focusing on what is now known as RPA, which aims to turn every application’s interface into a virtual API, effectively allowing for widespread automation.

Shukla highlights the transformative potential of automation in the workplace, arguing that automating routine and repetitive tasks can free human workers from “robotic” jobs and enable them to engage in more creative and meaningful activities. The Automation Anywhere platform democratizes automation by making it accessible not only to developers but also to business users, thus broadening the impact and utility of the technology. By leveraging AI and an ecosystem of third-party developers through the Automation Anywhere Bot Store, the company envisions a future where digital assistants are ubiquitous, significantly altering the nature of work.

The long-term vision presented by Shukla is ambitious and optimistic. He imagines a world where every job is augmented by a digital assistant, leading to a significant increase in the number of roles requiring higher levels of creativity and innovation. Shukla stresses the societal importance of this shift, envisioning a future where technology not only enhances productivity and efficiency but also fundamentally redefines what work is. This vision aligns with a broader goal of creating a more fulfilling and democratized workforce, where technology serves as a powerful equalizer and enabler of human potential.
