During high stress it can be easy to turn to bots and AI as the miracle cure for stretched customer care. However, even with all the great technology entering the customer service and CX world, we can’t replace people. That’s the key - a blend of technology and humanity.
Calabrio and CX expert Shep Hyken unwrap the perfect gift of AI-fueled humanity in customer experiences, both at high stakes times and for ongoing customer loyalty. Often AI and the human touch are seen in isolation from each other, or almost enemies. Explore how we can solve the complex CX equation by nurturing memorable, emotion-driven human interactions and enriching them with the fact-based, fast-processing rationale of AI, bots and analytics.
Key talking points in the webinar:
- The difference between a satisfied customer and a loyal customer
- Strategies and concepts for human-to-human Moments of Magic®
- Growing role of AI, bots & BI in customer service today
- When the bots should be turned off & humanity ramped up
- Where does the future lie with Artificial Humanity?
