Exploring the Impact of Generative AI in Customer Service: A Conversation with Sprinklr’s Lead Solution Specialist

In today’s fast-paced world, customer service is more important than ever. With the rise of Generative AI applications in customer service, businesses are facing new opportunities and challenges. How can contact centers keep up with this rapidly changing market? Which use cases are appropriate for AI implementation? And how can companies ensure they are utilizing AI in a way that benefits both them and their customers?

One company leading the way in Unified Customer Experience Management is Sprinklr. By harnessing the power of GenAI through their proprietary AI technology, integrated with Google Cloud’s Vertex AI and OpenAI’s GPT models, Sprinklr is redefining the customer experience for their enterprise clients. With capabilities tailored to different use cases and business phases, Sprinklr is at the forefront of innovation in customer service.

In a recent interview with Aurélien Caye, Lead Solution Specialist at Sprinklr, we delved into the company’s innovative efforts and the impact of GenAI on customer service in 2024. According to Caye, there are three key pillars to consider when it comes to AI applications in contact centers.

The first pillar is preempting the need for customer contact. By analyzing vast amounts of contact center data, GenAI can proactively identify root causes of issues, allowing businesses to address them before they escalate. The second pillar is self-service, where bots are made more human-like and efficient to help customers help themselves. The third pillar is agent interactions, where GenAI can help agents be more efficient, have more context, and receive better coaching.

One of Sprinklr’s most significant additions to their AI strategy is Conversational AI+, launched in 2023. This dynamic capability amplifies self-service functionalities and allows enterprises to tailor solutions to their AI maturity level. As companies progress in their GenAI adoption journey, they can address more complex use cases and revolutionize traditional conversational AI.

Looking ahead, Caye envisions broader adoption of low-risk, internal-facing GenAI use cases in the short term, with a gradual shift towards external-facing applications in the long term. He emphasizes the importance of a symbiotic relationship between internal and external GenAI applications to ensure a balanced workload for agents.
