1
00:00:00,000 –> 00:00:02,830
we’re going to look at some Insights from IDC, what the world
2
00:00:02,830 –> 00:00:05,750
looks like today, and really looking at how we unlock
3
00:00:05,750 –> 00:00:10,000
the power of artificial intelligence, and apply that in in
4
00:00:10,000 –> 00:00:14,540
Contact Center specifically. We’re also going to have a panel discussion and please
5
00:00:14,540 –> 00:00:16,520
feel free to ask us questions now, or if you’ve
6
00:00:16,670 –> 00:00:18,770
got something that’s on your mind, put under the Q&
7
00:00:18,770 –> 00:00:20,520
A window, because we’re going to get to it very,
8
00:00:20,520 –> 00:00:23,780
very soon. We also want to talk about some of the things that
9
00:00:23,780 –> 00:00:26,690
you can do right away to improve your customer experience
10
00:00:26,760 –> 00:00:30,490
using artificial intelligence. As per our research across most industries,
11
00:00:30,690 –> 00:00:34,350
brands of all sizes have started to push heavily towards
12
00:00:34,390 –> 00:00:38,660
increased automation in their customer service, as well as employee
13
00:00:38,660 –> 00:00:47,340
self- service, sales, marketing, human resources, IT help desk. You might wonder, “What has really changed?” Most
14
00:00:47,370 –> 00:00:50,740
of these brands are now looking for conversational AI as one
15
00:00:50,740 –> 00:00:55,220
of the key drivers for that automation. And as conversational
16
00:00:55,420 –> 00:00:59,650
AI allows brands to use natural language processing and machine
17
00:00:59,650 –> 00:01:03,590
learning- based tools, to support both their customers and the
18
00:01:03,590 –> 00:01:10,510
agents who support these customers. And the conversational AI chatbots and voicebots,
19
00:01:10,980 –> 00:01:14,490
they’re more sophisticated these days. But before I move on
20
00:01:14,490 –> 00:01:16,670
to the next slide, another very interesting stat that I
21
00:01:16,670 –> 00:01:19,470
want to share here is that we spend a lot
22
00:01:19,470 –> 00:01:21,800
of time talking to the end users and don’t worry,
23
00:01:21,800 –> 00:01:25,490
there’s still research as well, that what is really coming
24
00:01:25,490 –> 00:01:28,190
up and shaping up in addition to just the voicebots
25
00:01:28,190 –> 00:01:33,280
and chatbots is the computer vision effect to it. The computer vision
26
00:01:33,280 –> 00:01:37,420
has become more mature with image recognition achieving significant improvements.
27
00:01:37,530 –> 00:01:41,320
Thanks to deep learning techniques, computer vision, and CRM is
28
00:01:41,320 –> 00:01:45,050
very early stage. I guess, again, coming back to current
29
00:01:45,400 –> 00:01:51,270
times and the research that you’ve seen, how will the Contact Centers adapt in to the modern world and
30
00:01:51,270 –> 00:01:58,260
the things that are going on today? Absolutely. It’s not an easy thing, but I always love
31
00:01:58,260 –> 00:02:01,130
to say this, ” There’s no choice.” Customers have to do
32
00:02:01,130 –> 00:02:05,910
this in order to be innovative, providing, improving on the
33
00:02:05,910 –> 00:02:09,730
customer experience, but at the same time, not compromising on
34
00:02:09,730 –> 00:02:12,650
the operational efficiency. And it’s a great balance that customers
35
00:02:12,650 –> 00:02:16,490
need to do. I was going to say, the business driver, what we’re seeing is, now
36
00:02:16,490 –> 00:02:20,400
the customer will come and first think about operational efficiency, cost reduction
37
00:02:20,400 –> 00:02:22,710
are the first thing they have in mind. But the
38
00:02:22,740 –> 00:02:26,590
reality is, when you start doing a Contact Center and
39
00:02:26,590 –> 00:02:29,730
put Contact Center AI in your Contact Center, you’re really
40
00:02:29,730 –> 00:02:33,280
transforming your customer experience across all channels. And the business
41
00:02:33,280 –> 00:02:36,560
drivers to provide a coherent experience when you’re on chat,
42
00:02:36,610 –> 00:02:38,390
when you’re on voice, when you’re on your web, or
43
00:02:38,390 –> 00:02:42,730
your mobile app, where the engine behind it, the AI
44
00:02:42,730 –> 00:02:46,070
behind is able to manage across those channels, switch channels, understand
45
00:02:46,480 –> 00:02:49,170
what was said, the context, the past history, et cetera,
46
00:02:49,350 –> 00:02:53,850
and provide you a unique voice for the company to
47
00:02:53,850 –> 00:02:57,730
that customer or that user, if talk about organizations. I
48
00:02:57,730 –> 00:03:01,090
want to maybe echo something that you said there, about providing
49
00:03:01,760 –> 00:03:05,510
empathetic customer experiences. And now more than ever, I feel
50
00:03:05,510 –> 00:03:08,200
like we need to have empathy for our fellow human.
51
00:03:08,230 –> 00:03:12,060
We’re all going through something we know this is a generational thing.
52
00:03:12,670 –> 00:03:16,600
Something we haven’t seen in many generations. So, what we’re
53
00:03:16,860 –> 00:03:23,140
experiencing now is different, but crisis creates opportunity. And we’re
54
00:03:23,140 –> 00:03:26,810
also seeing that this is actually being a bit of
55
00:03:26,810 –> 00:03:29,800
a non dialogue, as you said, Ritu, to some of
56
00:03:29,800 –> 00:03:36,790
the applications of AI. I An Agent Assist as you
57
00:03:36,790 –> 00:03:39,150
said, is a little newer in it’s technology, but it’s
58
00:03:39,150 –> 00:03:42,570
really a breakthrough that’s been enabled by the advent of
59
00:03:42,570 –> 00:03:45,170
voice and speech to text in particular, speech to text
60
00:03:45,260 –> 00:03:52,170
technologies. Google has a long history of trying to understand
61
00:03:52,170 –> 00:03:55,830
speech either through understanding YouTube videos, to be able to
62
00:03:55,830 –> 00:03:59,610
search them and remove hate speech in YouTube videos. Either
63
00:03:59,610 –> 00:04:03,090
through a Google Home Assistant, and understand all the requests
64
00:04:03,090 –> 00:04:05,930
from users, that’s millions and millions of requests every year.
65
00:04:07,530 –> 00:04:12,360
And also through transcription of voice messages on phone. You
66
00:04:12,360 –> 00:04:16,080
have Google voice and you can do your voicemail transcription.
67
00:04:16,080 –> 00:04:19,380
Genesys has some artificial intelligence technology on its own with something
68
00:04:19,380 –> 00:04:22,110
we call Predictive Web Engagement, that allows you to engage
69
00:04:22,110 –> 00:04:25,140
customers based on all of the data that we know
70
00:04:25,140 –> 00:04:27,430
and drive them to an experience that is very best
71
00:04:27,430 –> 00:04:32,620
for them. Sometimes that’s a human. Sometimes that’s a piece of content. Other times that’s a
72
00:04:32,620 –> 00:04:36,600
bot. And using that upfront decision logic in an orchestration,
73
00:04:36,770 –> 00:04:40,410
we can really optimize that end to end customer experience
74
00:04:40,570 –> 00:04:42,930
and bring in the technology at the right time.
