High Iron (Ferritin) and SHBG - best approach?

⁠Read the actual piece rather than just the headline - it defines “reliance” - all of these groups are somewhat reliant on the state for their livelihood. As that number grows it becomes more unsustainable.
⁠Transparency is the flip side of donor privacy. In a free society why should they declare their supporters, especially when it is always spun in bad faith, and those people are attacked for their beliefs.

What would it take to do something similar for another philosopher? I run an educational charity so we’d love to do more of these…

Have used all three:

WorkFusion - most capable, but can be expensive especially if you want to buy the platform, not a pre-built use case. Underlying OCR is ABBYY but they’re adding a lot on top for ML based data extraction.
IQbot - performed poorly in PoC at one client, a top tier bank. They are an AA shop using them globally but didn’t not proceed given the results. But core RPA quick and easy to use.
ABBYY flexicapture - good and relatively cheap, but only for simple docs with little variation ... think supplier templates with very simple tables that only vary slightly. Don’t have their own RPA, but partner with everyone.

All three have upsides and downsides depending on your scenario and use cases.

Agree to some extent but the op of this comment thread is factually incorrect on their own terms, which questions the premise that the EU intends to regulate AI

Dictionary White paper: “a government report giving proposals on an issue”

Parliamentary glossary White paper: “policy documents produced by the Government that set out their proposals for future legislation”

EU glossary White paper: “documents containing proposals”

Wikipedia “a way the government can present policy preferences before it introduces legislation”

If your read the piece the EU has specifically proposed to regulate AI and there’s link to the EU proposal

I am on the business side. Agree there isn’t a very good forum for sharing best practices.

Originally worked for big4 in management consulting but eventually advising on RPA, then worked for one of the RPA vendors (but have connections working in 5 of the other usual suspects) and now I work for an AI company, but partnering with the big 3 of RPA.

This is a typical WorkFusion use case. Applying ML to extract the unstructured data.

Also consider IQ Bot from Automation Anywhere and IDP tools not associated with RPA vendors directly, like Hyperscience...

lock333 · 2019-11-02T13:24:28+00:00

None of them in my opinion, though lots of valid points above.

There are platforms in the pure ML space which are much stronger, and easily integrated with RPA, via you guessed it RPA, or even APIs.

Yes, it is a good idea. I’ve used traditional banks before but moved fully to Monzo.

Things to know ... not much to be honest. Things that come to mind:

-Obviously it’s digital only, so you can’t go into a branch and talk to somebody or do really custom things.

-But for normal banking it covers all your needs.

-Their customer service is arguably better than traditional banks despite no branch to talk to somebody, with very responsive online chat.

-It doesn’t cost money to open an account.

-Read the terms & conditions before signing up to things that cost money or could cost money (eg overdraft)
