Procurement Says No Ep14 Deus Ex Machina

Ashley Williams from Mishcon de Reya is back as we delve further into artificial intelligence and machine learning.  Will machines save us?  Will capitalism save us?  What will the world’s despots do with this technology?  Is this a turtle on its back?   Will Charlie Watts really play drums on a new Whitney album?  Will lawyers and procurement people be replaced by bots?   Who’s best – big companies or small companies?  What is intent prediction and will Ed go to prison for a crime he is yet to commit?  Or will we just be regulated to a higher standard (oh, that’s a bit dull)?   All of these questions will be answered, sort of. And we have news of a very exciting procurement job in construction (no, really); procurement’s role in creating massive plastic pollution; procurement podcast lists (we love a list); and who really cares about the top 10 ERP systems.   Plus your questions on travel sourcing and AirB&B; above the line marketing; and the best categories for big savings.Don’t press the red button; press the link below instead.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/procurement-says-no--5886102/support.
