The Role of AI in CX: The Virtual Agent

Artificial intelligence is one of the driving forces behind the digital transformation happening at all levels of organizations throughout the world. Customer service is no exception.

Industry experts believe that AI will augment, not replace, human customer service agents. As such, it's time for call centers to leverage all that AI and automation can do to streamline their processes.

In this webinar, Verizon and CXPA will share best practices for leveraging AI in the contact center and the benefits that result, including: 

• Improved customer experience and drive loyalty by empowering customers to self-serve simple tasks, painlessly
• Increased agent retention and morale through streamlining of processes and arming them with better intelligence
• Gain insights on your customers - their perceptions, intents and feelings about your brand and the experience you deliver
• Reduce operational costs and fund new service models through increased agent productivity and call deflection
