Building Human-Centered AI in Customer Service and Experience

Shep Hyken interviews Seth Dobrin, IBM's first Global Chief AI Officer, leading the company's corporate AI strategy. He shares how businesses can take a human-centered approach when utilizing AI to help their customers.

Top Takeaways: 

· What do we mean when we talk about AI for business? It is a technology that understands the language of your business and automates workflows and processes in a trustworthy manner that complies with regulations.

· When organizations build AI, they make it to solve a problem, but they don't often think of the humans that are involved until the end. When building AI solutions, we must start with who will use the AI and why. Then, recognize that the person using the AI technology and the person impacted by it may not be the same person.

· AI technology can help us eliminate or reduce the human tendency to have biases when we're driving decisions.

· Seth also shares how we can understand the problems that our customers, employees, and contractors face and the value AI create for them. Plus, we take a peek at the AI trends that we can expect in the very near future. Tune in!
