intelligence and does not require the hiring process for a business. It works on 
its own and follows the set of instructions which you provide to it. But in an 
ordinary business the hiring of the employees will take place, suitable person 
needed to be selected and a proper training should be given to train them, so 
that they can do the work with accuracy. And if the employees are not skillful

capability to work on different tasks or projects and enable people to work

employees according to their skill-sets only. And may be the employees will 
not be having the desired skills and this will make them to lack behind to 
provide a desired result.
