That’s why we are aware of how Generative AI has emerged in our lives, which is why we wanted to analyze in this article the new role this technology is playing in the customer service sector.
We invite you to learn firsthand how this technology is being applied in the Contact Centers of our clients and many other companies, driving a significant transformation in how customer interactions are managed and exceptional CX is delivered.
Generative AI: beyond generating images or text
We often associate this technology with its most common and simple uses: generating images and text. However, beyond that, Generative AI has evolved significantly to include the generation of voice and audio. This allows Contact Centers to use trained artificial voices to sound more human and relatable, conducting interactions with customers, answering complex questions, and directing calls to more experienced agents efficiently and, above all, naturally.
Just look at the numbers; according to the strategic consulting firm Boston Consulting Group (BCG), it is estimated that Generative Artificial Intelligence tools can lead to savings of up to 60% for sales and customer service Contact Centers, adding a “differential value” compared to other previously used technologies, thanks to a “high degree of quality” and its ability to “standardize the customer experience without losing the ability to offer a high degree of personalization”.
Using generative artificial intelligence models, this technology can create responses and conversations almost humanly, providing more natural and personalized answers to customer inquiries, also improving efficiency in managing calls and chats, and even anticipating customer needs before they express them.
Additionally, Generative AI in customer service centers is also being used to create personalized content or even generate responses to emails or text messages, being able to understand the conversation’s context and continue it, which helps companies maintain more effective and relevant communication with customers.
