Outsource the outsourcing with AI:

Last year, BAT partnered with the technology consultancy Accenture to outsource some of its work, which Marroco said at the time would give the tobacco company access to its “advanced AI solutions”. Some jobs in the UK, Poland, Romania, Costa Rica, Mexico, Singapore and Malaysia have been absorbed by Accenture since the deal, BAT said.
