Artificial intelligence (AI) is a subfield of artificial intelligence that enables machines to analyze massive datasets, learn from that data, and make decisions based on it. Automation, on the other hand, is setting something up to run automatically, typically replacing repetitive or mundane tasks. While automation excels at following predetermined paths, AI can interpret data and make decisions before proceeding. AI's ability to "think" comes from machine learning, which enables machines to analyze datasets, learn, and make decisions. Automation and AI are not interchangeable terms, but they can work together in workflows to achieve more complex tasks. Humans still have a crucial role to play, especially when unique or creative thinking is required, while AI and automation can take on routine and repetitive tasks. By combining the strengths of both, individuals can create powerful automated workflows that leverage the best of human brain power with the capabilities of AI and automation.
