CUSTOMER SERVICE, which has for long been synonymous with long queues, IVR loops and endless call transfers, is being recast by artificial intelligence. Across sectors, companies are deploying chatbots, voice bots, and AI-driven assistants to improve speed, accuracy, and efficiency, while also cutting costs.
