Submitted by fabbri on

it-finanzmagazin (25.09.2017)  Eine Studie zur Digitalisierung im Gesund­heits­wesen (Download) zeige oftmals noch eine große Lücke zwischen Anspruch und Realität. Versicherte der Privaten Krankenversicherung (PKV) wünschen sich häufig eine digitale Abrechnung, Ärzte sind dabei aber noch sehr zögerlich.

Submitted by massetti on

Des milliers de robots s’activent dans les entrepôts du géant chinois du commerce en ligne, Alibaba, comme chez son concurrent américain, Amazon. Quasiment sans présence humaine.

Près de 70 % des emplois dans les pays développés seraient concernés par la robotisation.
