<\/p>\nAI enabled tools and platforms offer the potential to leverage unstructured digital information to improve customer experiences and drive business outcomes.<\/p>\n
AI is not a silver bullet, but it is a useful tool when applied to the right use cases. This article introduces an approach for selecting AI use cases and balancing risks and rewards.<\/p>\n
ServiceXRG defines and presents 20 possible AI for Support use cases. The dimensions for choosing which use cases to consider are described in detail following the figure.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
AI-enabled tools can be provided to end customers or limited to internal team access. Opportunities and risk factors for internal versus external uses cases are considered below.<\/p>\n
+<\/strong><\/span> Ability to expose organizational knowledge to internal staff resulting in faster time to expertise.<\/p>\n +<\/span><\/strong> Generative capabilities quickly create answers to share with customers.<\/p>\n +<\/span><\/strong> Ability to maintain data privacy and security.<\/p>\n +<\/span><\/strong> Low exposure of risk due to hallucinations and unexpected performance.<\/p>\n +<\/span> <\/strong>Ability to control use of tools.<\/p>\n +<\/span><\/strong> Easier to capture feedback.<\/p>\n – <\/span><\/strong>Customers continue to rely on assisted channels.<\/p>\n –<\/strong> <\/span>Support team may be reluctant to use AI-assisted tools.<\/p>\n +<\/strong><\/span> Ability to share organizational knowledge with customers, lowering reliance on assisted resources.<\/p>\n +<\/span> <\/strong>Generative capabilities dynamically create audience appropriate responses.<\/p>\n +<\/strong><\/span> Potential to lower cost of knowledge curation and management.<\/p>\n –<\/span> <\/strong>Increased exposure to hallucinations and unexpected performance.<\/p>\n –<\/span><\/strong> Sensitive data may be inadvertently used and shared.<\/p>\n –<\/span> <\/strong>Difficult to track effectiveness.<\/p>\n AI-enabled tools are relatively new to the market.
