Altilia is recognized as Major Player in 2023-2024 IDC MarketScape Worldwide Intelligent Document Processing Vendor Assessment

What can we expect for the future in the field of HyperAutomation?

By altilia on November 9, 2022
HyperAutomation (HA) is rapidly moving from just being an interesting proposition for highly innovative projects and applications to becoming a critical business need for organizations across any industry.

Today, and in the coming months, the threat of possible recession scenarios, demands businesses make greater efforts to improve their cost efficiency, agility, productivity, and innovation-based resilience.

According to a recent forecast by Gartner, by 2025 the HA software market is expected to reach a market value of nearly $860 billion worldwide, with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 12.3%.

Massive impact

In this scenario, the impact of Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) platforms that are capable of integrating hybrid AI approaches based on computer vision, Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP), knowledge representation, rule-based methods, and other AI technologies, will be massive.

These platforms will accelerate digital transformation across most verticals, with highest adoption rates in industries like financial services (banking, insurance, investing etc.), telecommunications, media, utilities, manufacturing, and services.

Use case applications will provide:
  • Improved personal and organizational efficiency,
  • Improved user interactions and satisfaction of both customers and employees,
  • More efficient and agile work methods,
  • Improved Robotic Process Automation (RPA) application potential for processes requiring human cognitive capabilities,
  • Enhancements and performance improvements for pre-existing software solutions and systems within the organization, like RPA, ECM, ERP, CRM.

Companies are increasingly experimenting and implementing solutions based on Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) and Intelligent Process Automation (IPA) approaches and tools.

In parallel, we are witnessing a growing interest in Hybrid and Composite AI solutions that enable close interactions between machine and human intelligence, by combining semantic and ML approaches with no-code/low-code and conversational user interfaces (CUIs).

This paradigm shift is enabling organizations to gradually change their approach for the automation of operational and decision-making tasks, involving business users more closely in the process.

At this rate, in the next 3 to 5 years we expect some of the most advanced IDP capabilities to become a standard market requirement.

This includes:
  • The capability to ingest and process documents and contents from several different unstructured sources and in various formats.
  • Semantic document and data indexing capabilities.
  • Interfacing and interoperating capabilities with other applications in the customer’s software ecosystem.
  • The ability to manage end-to-end business processes automation as a comprehensive suite or in tandem with other RPA solutions

Additionally, in the companies where the RPA revolution is already taking place, we expect progress to move forward only as these solutions will become increasingly integrated with IDP platforms, in order to unlock the untapped potential of automating processes involving the handling of unstructured data present in documents, texts and other unstructured sources.

These are exactly the kind of capabilities Altilia is pushing forward with the Altilia Intelligent Automation™ platform, setting the bar for end-to-end IDP platforms technological advancements.

Over the next 3 to 5 years, Altilia will continue to address the increasingly complex HyperAutomation needs of organizations, acting as a strategic partner to facilitate customers’ strategic investments in HA/IPA/IDP initiatives, from the simplest tactical implementations to the more disruptive and valuable innovations.

How the technology behind Chat GPT can work for your organization

The explosion of interest and publicity in Artificial Intelligence in recent months has come from the advent of Large Language Models, specifically OpenAI’s ChatGPT, which set the record for the fastest-growing user base in January. Suddenly it seems like everyone is fascinated by the coming surge of AI with new applications, creating excitement and fear for the future. When Google’s so-called “Godfather of AI” Dr Geoffrey Hinton warned about “quite scary” dangers, it made headlines around the world. Behind the hype So, it is important to understand what is behind the hype and see how it works and what your organization can use to build future value. This blog is split into two: first we learn about Natural Language Processing, the branch of computer science concerned with giving machines the ability to understand text and spoken words in much the same way humans can. And then we will go deeper on Large Language Models (LLMs), which is what ChatGPT and others like Google’s Bard are using. NLP combines computational linguistics with statistical, machine learning, and deep learning models to enable computers to process human language in the form of text or voice data and to ‘understand’ its full meaning, complete with the speaker or writer’s intent and sentiment. NLP drives computer programs that translate text from one language to another, respond to spoken commands, and summarize large volumes of text rapidly—even in real time. There’s a good chance you’ve interacted with NLP in the form of voice-operated GPS systems, digital assistants, speech-to-text dictation software, customer service chatbots, and other consumer conveniences. But NLP also plays a growing role in enterprise solutions that help streamline business operations, increase employee productivity, and simplify mission-critical business processes. There are two sub-fields of NLP: Natural Language Understanding (NLU) uses syntactic and semantic analysis of text and speech to determine the meaning of a sentence, similarly to how humans do it naturally. Altilia uses Large Language Models for this. Natural Language Generation (NLG) enables computers to write a human language text response based on data input. ChatGPT uses LLMs for NLG. Large Language Models (LLMs) LLMs are a relatively new approach where massive amounts of text are fed into the AI algorithm using unsupervised learning to create a “foundation” model, which can use transfer learning to continually learn new tasks. The key is using huge volumes of data. The training data for ChatGPT comes from a diverse set of text sources, including billions of web pages from the internet, a huge number of books from different genres, articles from news websites, magazines and academic journals and social media platforms such as Twitter, Reddit and Facebook to learn about informal language and the nuances of social interactions. The model is then able to predict the next word in a sentence and generate coherent text in a wide range of language tasks. Altilia does exactly the same, but uses this capability to provide enterprise tools for specific business use cases. Technology breakthrough Overall, NLP is the core technology to understand the content of documents. LLMs are a breakthrough in the field as they allow a shift from where an NLP model had to be trained in silos for a specific task to one where LLMs can leverage accumulated knowledge with transfer learning. In practice, this means we can apply a pre-trained LLM and fine-tune it with a relatively small dataset to allow the model to learn new customer-specific or use-case specific tasks. We are then able to scale up more effectively, it can be applied more easily for different use cases, leading to a higher ROI.

Leveraging GPT and Large Language Models to enhance Intelligent Document Processing

The rise of Artificial Intelligence has been the talk of the business world since the emergence of ChatGPT earlier this year. Now executives around the world find themselves in need of understanding the importance and power of Large Language Models in delivering potentially ground-breaking use cases that can bring greater efficiency and accuracy to mundane tasks. Natural Language Generation (NLG) enables computers to write a human language text response based on human generated prompts. What few understand is that there is still a deep flaw in the ChatGPT technology: up to 20-30% of all results have inaccuracies, according to Gartner. What Gartner have found is that ChatGPT is “susceptible to hallucinations and sometimes provides incorrect answers to prompts. It also reflects the deficiencies of its training corpus, which can lead to biased or inappropriate responses as well as algorithmic bias.” To better understand this, it’s key to consider how LLMs work: hundreds of billions of pieces of training data are fed into the model, enabling it to learn patterns, associations, and linguistic structures. This massive amount of data allows the model to capture a wide range of language patterns and generate responses based on its learned knowledge. However, as vast training data can be, the model can only generate responses as reliable as the information it has been exposed to. If it encounters a question or topic that falls outside the training data or knowledge cutoff, responses may be incomplete or inaccurate. For this reason, and to better understand how best to use LLMs in enterprise environments, Gartner outlined a set of AI Design Patterns and ranked them by difficulty of each implementation. We are delighted to share that Altilia Intelligent Automation already implements in its platform two of the most complex design patterns: LLM with Document Retrieval or Search This provides the potential to link LLMs with internal document databases, unlocking key insights from internal data with LLM capabilities This provides much more accurate and relevant information, reducing the potential for inaccuracies due to the ability to the use of retrieval. Fine-tuning LLM The LLM foundation model is fine-tuned using transfer learning with an enterprise’s own documents or particular training dataset, which updates the underlying LLM parameters. LLMs can then be customized to specific use cases, providing bespoke results and improved accuracy. So, while the business and technology world has been getting excited by the emergence of ChatGPT and LLMs, Altilia has already been providing tools to enterprises to leverage these generative AI models to their full potential. And by doing so, thanks to its model’s fine-tuning capabilities, we are able to overcome the main limitation of a system like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, which is the lack of accuracy of its answers.
