Привет, Хабр! Меня зовут Сергей, я руковожу управлением операционных технологий в РГС. Недавно мы с командой обсуждали вопрос: «А что эффективнее сегодня: робот или AI-агент?». В последние годы RPA стал массовым инструментом автоматизации рутинных бизнес-процессов. При этом RPA, действующий по строго заданным сценариям, отлично справляется с многократной обработкой хорошо структурированных задач, а ИИ-агенты на основе LLM — с неструктурированными данными и рассуждениями. В enterprise-ландшафте это не конкур Read more ›

Но не это главное.Пока интернет разбирал по косточкам внутренности Claude Code, увлечённо споря, игрушка это или серьёзная архитектура, настоящая ценность утечки осталась почти незамеченной. Anthropic случайно показала миру не список фич. Она показала, как на самом деле думает её ИИ-агент.За милыми именами... Read more ›

Кто победит в соревновании по обработке документов — опытный специалист или нейросеть? На рутинных повторяющихся задачах ИИ уверенно обходит человека: он работает быстрее и не устаёт, тогда как внимание человека дискретно — мы ошибаемся из‑за усталости или монотонности работы.Оптимальное решение — разделить роли: нейросеть быстро и точно сортирует данные, а человек ставит задачи, контролирует процесс и оценивает результат. Как же на практике превратить ИИ-помощника и живого эксперта в эффективную команду?Дл Read more ›
