Dozens. I’m a consultant and it’s what I do. The modeling is very easy. The operational changes are the hard part. Basically any random task of. A sort of maintenance, production, replacement, procurement or scheduling task can save 10-30% with a simple model. There’s a long way to go but this stuff is everywhere.

The world hasn’t even fully realized the productivity value of spreadsheets and email.

Email summarizers and such don't count as revolution, sorry.
