Key Takeaways:

• We can use AI to provide instant resolutions to customers. In turn, freeing up agents to have meaningful and empathetic interactions with customers.
• However, AI isn't a magic tool. You have to understand which tasks are low risk enough to automate and grow from there.
• AI also allows customers to get support through LLMs while your agents create emotional connections with customers.

-------------------

“Same agent who was going to provide that instant resolution to the customer now is free or is available to now drive more empathy on the high complex or high painful experience. There are tasks which are highly emotional because we don't give our agents enough time to show empathy or to engage in a very emotional way with the customer. You're creating the time for them.” – Guneet Singh
