Last weekend we attended a value-adding roundtable hosted by Exotel and TeamMarksmen on bridging expectations and realities in AI-driven customer experience (CX). I came across some fascinating & diverse perspectives on AI adoption across industries! AI is evolving rapidly, and at this stage, we can confidently say that it serves as a valuable support and complement rather than a replacement for complex human interactions. During the discussions, the respective industry experts highlighted several use cases that showcase AI's potential. For instance, AI-powered chatbots and virtual assistants can efficiently handle routine inquiries, allowing human agents to focus on more complex issues, ultimately reducing response times and improving overall service quality. Additionally, AI's ability to analyze customer data provides insights that help businesses tailor their offerings, leading to quicker resolutions and a more efficient service process. The availability of AI-driven support 24/7 ensures that customers can receive assistance for simple problems whenever they need it, significantly enhancing turnaround times. While AI is making strides in simulating empathy and creating personalized experiences, the genuine emotional connection still requires a human touch in many cases. The conversation about the hype versus reality of AI applications was enlightening, emphasizing the need to address challenges like data quality and ethical concerns for successful adoption. While different sectors continue their experiments with application, exciting times lie ahead as we work to blend human intuition with AI efficiency!

Channel Partners day 3 has me curious about the future of CX and customer interactions in an AI enabled world. Mainly, how will customers react to the next wave of interaction technology. While it's possible to automate most customer interactions, will it be embraced by the customer or rejected? Will it enhace brand loyalty or make them question it? A good CX focused AI strategy should include testing, measuring, gathering customer feedback, and constantly tuning the tools to ensure it is meeting customer's needs and expectations. AI tools will also require care teams to have new technology enabled skills that also have operational acumen in your care model. AI will ramp up faster than any other emerging technology we have experienced in the contact center arena. Is your company prepared for this massive transition? If not, we can help! #infinitegreen #CX #AI #CXSTRATEGY

The future of AI and tech in the hospitality industry is not robot concierges. Still, the tech is most effective in helping create a more personalized customer experience, implementing everything from curated accommodations and predictive analytics to utilizing chatbots to answer basic questions for customers. Guests' most common questions are about WiFi passwords, hotel service operating hours, and wake-up calls. Implementing AI into operations can free up associates to focus on more lasting interactions with customers. This doesn't mean adding in technology for the sake of it is beneficial, however. When it comes to the customer experience, particularly when implementing technology for the sake of personalization, be mindful of how AI can make the customer experience flow more smoothly. #HospitalityIndustry #DigitalTransformation #CustomerExperience https://lnkd.in/g-WzRENU
