When AI platforms are not busy beating us at Go or showing us how to drive cars properly, they are also changing the way that companies spend and track money.

Although Manish and I had fun talking about some of my favorite geeky AI topics (probabilistic thinking and the influence of Thomas Bayes), what you may find really interesting, is our discussion on how clerical jobs in the company of the future will not be simply automated, but elevated into something altogether new with very different skills and outcomes.
