The Next Step for AI Customer Service: From "Answering Questions" to "Solving Problems"
Most AI customer service today still stops at"answering questions."The customer asks"Where is my order?"and the bot replies with a link.The customer asks"How do I return this?"and the bot pastes a policy page.The customer asks"Why is there an extra$50 on my credit card bill?"and the bot says"Please transfer to a human agent."That is not AI customer service–it is an advanced search engine.Real AI customer service should solve problems–check the order,initiate a return,dispute a transaction.The difference is that answering questions is simply moving information,while solving problems is completing a task.This difference determines whether a company is"pretending to use AI to cut costs"or"truly using AI to improve efficiency."
