Deloitte is rolling out an AI chatbot that can help staff answer emails and create presentations

• The Deloitte AI Institute developed an internal AI chatbot to assist employees with daily tasks.
• The company is rolling out the tool to 75,000 of its staff in Europe and the Middle East. 
• Staff can use it to create Powerpoint presentations and even write code that automates tasks. 

Deloitte is rolling out its own AI chatbot to 75,000 employees in the Middle East and UK to increase productivity.

Deloitte's AI institute developed the AI chatbot "PairD" and first launched the tool in the UK in October, per the Financial Times. The tool can assist staff with daily tasks like writing emails, creating PowerPoint presentations, and carrying out research.

Additionally, it can create project plans, advise on best practices for project management, and offer suggestions on prioritizing tasks, according to a recent press release from the company.

Staff have been informed that the tool might produce inaccurate information about people, places, and facts, per the FT. Because of this, workers have been asked to do their own due diligence on the chatbot's work.

Costi Perricos, Generative AI leader at Deloitte, said in a statement this week that the new tool is part of the company's long-term AI investment plans.

"A key focus for employers should be on how to use these new tools safely, so that they can be applied correctly and create value," he said.

Business Insider contacted Deloitte for comment but did not immediately hear back. 

Consulting firms like PWC have also been pushing employees to learn how to use AI and incorporate it into their work, BI previously reported.

The company recently rolled out training for 75,000 employees in the US and Mexico to teach these workers how to safely incorporate AI into their jobs.
