Yeah I was wondering that too, I'm just reading https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robotic_process_automation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robotic_process_automation which makes it sound like robotic process automation, might replicate people interacting with GUI programs? But it's still not clear to me, as to what kind of programs they're using it for.
