Generative AI boosts customer service with self-help tools and chatbots, making interactions smoother in today's complex digital world.

Last year, Gartner had projected that organizations would replace between 20-30% of all their customer service agents due to the impact of generative AI. This was when GenAI was at the “Peak of Inflated Expectations” on Gartner’s own scale. So, it’s reasonable to assume that these expectations will be tempered as we go along. For now, it seems like GenAI will play the biggest role in creating self-help content and enabling chatbots. Those are extremely valuable activities, but in themselves, they are unlikely to replace the work of 1 in 3 customer service people. Especially because the nature of support these teams are being called upon to provide is also changing. Products are becoming more complex and involved as they digitize in small and big ways. The tools and apps that customers and employees have to use are also moving on that same path. The outcomes expected from the use of these tools are becoming more high-profile and there’s more riding on them. All that in an environment of accelerating timelines, increasing competition, and dwindling patience. To be honest, I don’t see any prospect of a reduction in the workload on the IT helpdesk and customer service center. If anything, these teams will welcome the support they can get from GenAI tools. #GenAI #GenerativeAI #CustomerService #ITHelpdesk
