Augmentation, Not Replacement: AI at America’s Innovation Agency, feat. Jamie Holcombe, CIO of the USPTO
<p>Ivanti's recent research showed that IT workers are significantly more likely than other office workers to be anxious about the impact of AI on their jobs. IT workers are eight times more likely to say that the main beneficiaries of AI are employ<b><em>ers</em></b> rather than employ<b><em>ees</em></b>! Yet, IT workers also report record levels of burnout, which AI and automation have the potential to alleviate. </p><p>Rather than a feared future replacement, could AI actually be the powerful partner IT needs to do more and lower the risk of burnout? </p><p>Jamie Holcombe, CIO of the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) joins host Jeff Abbott to explain how adopting AI modernized how the USPTO did business across an enormous scale and led to a cultural and digital transformation of their IT operations. </p><p><b>About the research</b> </p><p>For Ivanti’s <a href='https://www.ivanti.com/resources/research-reports'>Digital Employee Experience (DEX) research series</a> we surveyed 16,200 IT professionals, executives and end users around the world, across a broad range of industries, to gauge their opinions on the current state and future of the digital employee experience (DEX). </p><p>See all Ivanti’s original research at <a href='http://ivanti.com/research'>ivanti.com/research</a>. </p><p><b>About the guest</b> </p><p>Henry (Jamie) Holcombe is the Chief Information Officer (CIO) for the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
