Michael Ten Generative AI could soon decimate the call center industry, says CEO
The Dark Lord ☑️Call centres exist because people can’t get the help they need by searching. Take away call centres, and you’re just making it more difficult for customers.
AurenkinYou’d be surprised how often we can automate a customers enquiry with ML (not even generative AI). Humans are still there as a fallback, but it’s a way better experience to give instant help to the person if possible and then put them into the queue if they have a more complicated problem. Searching is not really in the same context as automating customer queries, although I guess it could depend on the domain to an extent.
makingStuffForFunAre you using a self hosted open source system, or a saas subscription? I’m genuinely interested.
We use a home grown classification model for our customer facing stuff. There are some applications of LLMs we are using a SaaS for as it’s quick to get going but we are also working on fine tuning an open source model as well so we’ll see what ends up working better in terms of cost vs performance. That’s not going to be customer facing though, we don’t serve any generated text to customers.
