So… how many years do we give it until RPA has completely disappeared as a technology discipline?

As long as there are legacy systems without API's, you will be surprised how many companies still run critical processes in AS400, COBOL, etc with no roadmap for upgrades

I maybe biased but I don't see it disappearing. I see it becoming much easier for Citizen Development to deploy. AI with Process Intelligence will be the next wave that works alongside simple automations. There will always be inefficient processes and multiple systems that require swivel chair activities which can be resolved by RPA.

It was never a technology discipline for those of us who are competent engineers.

Funny you say that, because the whole reason RPA is needed was because of "competent engineers" that couldn't get their automations working correctly or quick enough 🤣

It’s a band aid in the end for broken business processes imo. I think give it 5 and it’ll be normal speak for novice users . Power automate desktop ships with every single windows release now .

It'll be a while. Most companies don't have the recorcous to automate their process quickly, so they'll need RPA to use as a bandaid. But I would recommend everyone to broaden their development skills as we move along

Alright grill me I don't care. But I matched with a guy on an app and we have great conversations. However, after going on a few dates with him, it's obvious he looks nothing like his pictures. He has grown his hair out a lot and grown king facial hair and it's just not what I was into when we matched? I really thought he looked different and something about his hair being long and so greasy makes it hard for me to be into him. I know I sound awful but what do I do / say?
