Generative AI is certainly a transformational form of artificial intelligence (AI) and having <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-sg\/blog\/post\/creating-new-value-for-customers-with-generative-ai\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">generative AI in your contact centre<\/a> toolset is critical in this content-hungry business environment. However, the ability to transform content and create more content isn\u2019t the only relevant use case.\r\n\r\nIn the data science community, certain techniques have stood the test of time. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spiceworks.com\/tech\/artificial-intelligence\/articles\/top-ml-algorithms\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">top three algorithms<\/a> that are used have not changed over the past decade: linear regression, logistic regression and decision trees. These algorithms are used the most because they answer critical questions: \u201cWhat is going to happen next? And why?\u201d\r\n\r\nWithin the contact centre, AI has been used to predict and automate key processes, with proven ROI, well before generative AI was a possibility.\r\n<h2>Predictive AI for Intelligent Workflow Automation<\/h2>\r\nPredictive AI techniques are used to calculate an outcome based on learned data patterns. For example, predictive AI is used to calculate the propensity to buy for a specific customer based on the buying behaviours of the many customers that have made a purchase before. It can also be used to group customers into segments and while segmentation technically uses clustering and grouping algorithms (versus the classical predictive algorithms), it can be based on predicted outcomes.\r\n\r\nWhen predictive AI is used for intelligent automation, it can call upon its closest AI cousin \u2013 prescriptive AI. Prescriptive AI is sometimes invoked when there\u2019s a decision to be made and there are multiple options that are possible. For example, Genesys <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-sg\/capabilities\/automated-routing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Predictive Routing<\/a> uses both predictive and prescriptive techniques to automate customer-agent connections based on a predictive model that\u2019s automatically created through Genesys AI.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner css=\".vc_custom_1692109716824{margin-top: 1.5em !important;margin-bottom: 1.5em !important;}\"][vc_column_inner width=\"1\/2\"][vc_single_image image=\"487256\" css=\".vc_custom_1694419312686{margin-right: 1.5em !important;margin-bottom: 1.5em !important;}\"][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=\"1\/2\"][vc_column_text]\r\n<h4 class=\"font-swb\">Five ways leading brands use AI<\/h4>\r\nFind out how five leading companies use AI to increase customer and employee satisfaction, improve efficiency and transform their CX.[\/vc_column_text][component_button primary_cta=\"url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.genesys.com%2Fen-sg%2Fresources%2Ffive-ways-leading-brands-use-ai|title:Read%20the%20e-book|target:_blank\"][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]When a customer chooses to activate predictive routing, they select a KPI they want to optimise. They can choose an operational KPI, such as average handle time, or they can select a revenue KPI like \u201cSales.\u201d Once the KPI is selected, Genesys AI evaluates the hundreds of possible factors that could be driving that KPI based on agent profile, customer profile, interaction profile and more.\r\n\r\nBefore a customer chooses to implement this new routing protocol, Genesys AI uses a form of prescriptive AI for a <a href=\"https:\/\/help.genesys.cloud\/articles\/predictive-routing-benefit-assessment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">benefit assessment<\/a>. Prescriptive AI is <a href=\"https:\/\/online.hbs.edu\/blog\/post\/prescriptive-analytics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">defined<\/a> as a form of AI that uses data to determine the best possible action based on multiple factors. \u00a0The benefit assessment is a unique application of AI that shows customers\u2019 potential KPI impact. When applied, predictive routing has an almost immediate impact on KPIs \u2014 it\u2019s built for that from the ground up.\r\n<h2>Predictive AI for Insight<\/h2>\r\nUsing a prediction for automation is one application of this form of AI within the contact centre, but it\u2019s not the only one. The ability to predict an outcome creates new opportunities for people and systems to learn about what a customer \u2014 or an employee \u2014 is likely to do next. One advantage of the contact centre is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-sg\/blog\/post\/7-security-promises-your-contact-centre-vendor-should-keep\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">vast amount of data<\/a> that\u2019s created.\r\n\r\nThe ability to turn this data into insights requires some core capabilities:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>A secure platform and data usage protocols that conform to rigorous ethical and regulatory guidelines<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Built-in AI pipelines that take advantage of the latest to maximise speed and accuracy<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Domain knowledge to apply new insights to existing processes, or create new ones, that are relevant, useful and cost-effective<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nPredictive AI can be used in the following ways:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Agents can see the outcome predictions for customers within the context of interactions \u2014this gives agents insight into customers they wouldn\u2019t normally have and can provide direction to conversations to make them more personal.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Supervisors can use predicted call and digital volumes to create better resource plans and schedules for meeting customer demand.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Journey architects use it to create interaction and engagement flows to proactively engage customers with offers and information, such as personalising a bot.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2>Conversational AI: A Core Capability for Modern Contact Centres<\/h2>\r\nConversational AI is a new bedrock of the modern contact centre. Automatic conversations, virtual assistants, bots \u2014 these are all ways of delivering smart self-service across all forms of engagement channels. What started as IVR (Press 1 for Yes, 2 for No) has evolved into the ability for consumers to interact with a brand using their own language and their own words \u2014 and to receive support on their own terms.\r\n\r\nWhile predictive AI is a staple, conversational AI is a form of the technology that emerged to help automate conversations. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-sg\/blog\/post\/drive-growth-in-cx-and-ex-with-conversational-ai\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Conversational AI<\/a> has the same roots as generative AI, but a different focus. It\u2019s used for bots and within IVRs to enable natural, controlled conversations between customers and brands.\r\n\r\nBlending conversational AI with predictive AI enables the architect to personalise conversations based on insight that isn\u2019t readily available. For example, if a customer has shared their personal data, it\u2019s easy to add a name greeting \u2014 and potentially extend that level of personalisation based on other easy-to--identify characteristics.\r\n\r\nConversations can go like this:\r\n\r\n<em>\u201cHello Bob!\u201d or \u201cHello Bob! Hope you\u2019re having a pleasant morning.\u201d \u00a0<\/em>\r\n\r\n<em>\u201cHello Sally! Hope you\u2019re having a nice afternoon.\u201d<\/em>\r\n\r\n<em>With predicted insight blended into the conversation, we now have:<\/em>\r\n\r\n<em>\u201cHello Bob! Good morning! Can I help you find a new product?\u201d<\/em>\r\n\r\n<em>\u201cHello Sally! Good afternoon! Were you aware of this 10% discount offer?\u201d<\/em>\r\n\r\nThis is now possible because predictive AI has helped us identify that Bob is 90% more likely to purchase new products than others. It also knows Sally has been on the fence about a purchase and offers are likely to push that along. While these examples are using actual names \u2014 implying a relationship and data that we don\u2019t always have access to \u2014 personalisation and prediction without identifying characteristics is also possible.\r\n<h2>Conversations Should Help, Not Just Delight<\/h2>\r\nMost have tried ChatGPT or ChatGPT-like portals by now. It\u2019s fun to ask it to write a blog on some esoteric subject and then get something back that reads well and may even incorporate a joke or two. However, when you\u2019re trying to serve customers, the goal is to help that customer get their issue resolved quickly and accurately without the customer having to expend a lot of effort.\r\n\r\nWhen customers are asked what they value most, \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-sg\/resources\/the-state-of-customer-experience\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The State of Customer Experience<\/a>\u201d report from Genesys found that they want a fast answer first and foremost (55%) and they want to receive service at any time on their channel of choice (62%). Dropped calls, dead-end service channels and obstacles to human service are all areas of frustration. And that frustration with service is emotional \u2013 26% of customer have said they lost their patience during an interaction, and for 12%, a bad service experience made them cry.\r\n\r\nHaving a colourful interface, fun music and AI-generated jokes isn\u2019t enough to make up for a dropped call, wrong answer or worse \u2013 no answer at all. One-third of consumers say they stopped doing business with a brand after a negative service interaction.\r\n\r\nConversational AI solutions are trained to provide accurate, contextual responses based on proven, domain-specific data. These solutions often go well beyond simple conversations. While they\u2019re using AI to understand the ask and then respond accordingly, they can also:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Help with a follow-up task such as scheduling an appointment, and then trigger an alerting process.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Retrieve data from CRM or other operational systems to provide status updates or other information.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Capture and validate information conversationally \u2014 and then use that data throughout the interaction.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Transition to other support channels \u2014 either virtual or human \u2014 with the conversation and its context preserved.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nIn a service scenario, it\u2019s important that bots understand their own limits, understand customers on their terms, and can help the customer solve the issue either by providing the support \u2013 or finding someone that does. If a bot can only guess at answers, provides wrong information or tries to change the subject, it\u2019s a barrier to service \u2013 not a service bot.\r\n\r\nBot building frameworks need to have a foundation for creating value. For example, it should enable a business user to create a bot that can answer questions, help with transactions, or act as a service concierge. It needs to enable transition points to agents as well as accelerators such as intent mining and AI-enabled knowledge.\r\n<h2>Generative AI Enters the Scene<\/h2>\r\nWhen <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-sg\/blog\/post\/contact-centre-ai-bridges-gaps-in-agent-and-customer-connections\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">generative AI models become accessible<\/a> for use within enterprise software solutions, they introduced the ability to work with content (documents, conversations, etc.) in new ways. In modern cloud-based customer experience platforms, generative AI is used to extract entities (who, what) from conversations as well as sentiment. It can also be used to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-sg\/capabilities\/agent-assist\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">automatically summarise conversations<\/a>.\r\n\r\nMuch has already been written about generative AI, and it\u2019s a subject we\u2019ll continue to explore in relation to delivering exceptional customer and employee experiences.\r\n\r\nThe best AI solution for the business isn\u2019t one that has a single AI type embedded. It\u2019s one that\u2019s both useful and usable.\r\n\r\n<strong>Useful means:<\/strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Accelerates a process without disrupting it.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Fits within the scope of the overall solution.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Is visible, controllable and can be tuned to business needs.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Doesn\u2019t create new risk for the business.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<strong>Usable means:<\/strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Has a defined implementation strategy.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Is cost-effective and has proven ROI.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Has an implementation timeline with a measurable outcome.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Doesn\u2019t require a significant investment in specialists.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nPredictive, conversational and generative AI are all disciplines that need to be part of the strategy for any organisation that wants to weave innovation, efficiency and smart automation into the very fabric of their customer engagement strategy.\r\n\r\nLearn more about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesys.com\/en-sg\/capabilities\/ai-and-automation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Genesys AI<\/a> today.
