Episode Description
The buzz: “Can a machine converse with a human with enough facility that the human could not tell that she was talking to a machine?…a mirror in which men wish only to see themselves.” (C.M. Valente). With 4 billion people worldwide using text messaging apps, brands have tremendous opportunity to expand their reach on Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Telegram, WeChat, and more. But now the Era of Conversational AI has arrived. Have you met Alaska Air’s Ai-enabled virtual assistant Jenn, who answers questions in beautiful natural language? We’ll explore how businesses like yours can use Conversational AI, if this can rescue consumers from bad service, and where we’re heading. The experts speak. Samir Patel, SAP: “I promise you one thing: A lot of good will come out of this" (Tim Tebow). Piyush Chandra, SAP: “One machine can do the work of 50 ordinary men. No machine can do the work of one extraordinary man” (Elbert Hubbard). Join us for Conversational AI: Are You Talking to Me?
