Will AI Kill Robotic Process Automation?
Lemvigh-Müller, a Danish wholesaler, has successfully replaced Robotic Process Automation (RPA) with an AI solution for processing supplier order confirmations. The company found that RPA struggled with the varied PDF formats from suppliers, but an AI model built on OpenAI's GPT-4.1 achieved 98% accuracy in identifying deviations and drafting responses. This AI implementation has led to significant time savings, estimated at 5,000 to 7,000 man-hours annually, with a payback period of under six months. AI
