Ensuring Conversational AI Response Quality

Conversational AI technology can handle thousands of customer inquiries. If designed properly, AI can improve the customer experience and boost the brand’s image while delivering significant efficiencies. However, an AI bot’s capacity to handle thousands of customer interactions simultaneously also introduces risks. If something is not quite right, an error or poor experience can be replicated exponentially and harm your brand. As such, it is extremely important to know the best practices in AI design and performance management required to achieve high levels of quality.
