Description

Across segments, enterprises are exploring novel ways of providing stellar customer service. Conversational AI is delivering just that—high-quality customer service, available 24-7, and in a geography-agnostic manner.

Juby Jose and Rohit Israni dive into how enterprise customer service is being reimagined with the power of conversational AI. Speech and language cognition technologies (natural language processing (NLP) and natural language understanding (NLU)) that enable digital assistants like Amazon Alexa are finding their way into enterprises. Gartner estimates that by 2020, 25% of customer service and support operations will integrate virtual customer-assistant technology across engagement channels of voice, chat, email. Juby and Rohit also explore how Xeon Scalable Processors accelerate the transition to intelligent conversational AI services.
