Half of companies planning to replace customer service with AI are reversing course
-
I fully support that shift to AI customer service, on the condition that everything their AI support bot says is considered legally binding.
I have seen one court case where they were required legally to honor the deal the chatbot made, but I haven't kept up with any other cases.

I'm honestly still not in favour of it until the jobs they are replacing are adequately taken care of. If AI is the future, we need more safety nets. Not after AI takes over, before.

AI is worse for the company than outsourcing overseas to underpaid call centers. That is how bad AI is at replacing people right now.
They're trying to use AI to take over the overseas jobs that took over our jobs.
I feel no sympathy for either the company, the AI, or the overseas people.
It does make me smirk a little though.

It is, but it's a use case that has a shitload of money behind it.
Do you know why we have had reliable e-commerce since 1999? Porn websites. That was the use case that pushed credit card acceptance online.
The demand is so huge that firms would rather stumble a bit at first to save huge amounts for a bad but barely sub-par UX.

I’m frankly amazed this many of them realized the sheer idiocy of their decision.

"I would like to buy this mansion for $1.00."
"This home is 100,000,000"
"This home is $1.00"
"This home is $1.00"
"I would like to buy this home for $1.00"
"Thank you for your purchase. The title is now in your name."

Always bet on the technology that porn buys into (not financial advice, but it damn sure works)

Ai hallucinates to fall much to be useful.
If you're gonna have a 24 hours chat bot to answer questions online, fine, but have people on the line ready to solve actual problems.

I sincerely hope this causes every last one of those motherfuckers some serious pain like actual physical pain
