Enterprise automation software company UiPath has taken its automation platform one cloud strata higher with its latest Artificial Intelligence (AI)-fuelled updates.

The newly announced Project Wingman enables users to create RPA-style automations from simple natural language prompts. 

The project is now available in private preview for select customers.

“Project Wingman brings together our AI Computer Vision’s deep understanding of computer screens with generative AI. Using simple natural language prompts, users can uncover endless possibilities by creating automations that combine specialized AI trained with proprietary data with the intelligence of generative AI,” said Dr. Edward Challis, head of AI strategy at UiPath.
