Happy Alexa, Sad Alexa…. In November 2020, Amazon Alexa added… | by Alex Kintzer | Jan, 2021

In November 2020, Amazon Alexa added more new speech presets (“musical” and “conversational”) to their “Excited/Disappointed” Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML) presets debuted in November 2019.* Although Alexa does provide examples of the code for each preset, they are still pretty vague (good internal coding) so from an audio/neuroscience view, I was interested in what made the voices sonically different and how that compared to current literature on acoustic characteristics of language and emotional prosody, using the examples from their website.*I am a student and not affiliated with Amazon. All sounds, code and news are publicly available.With the original and new audio examples hard-panned L and R respectively, I was able to use Blue Cat Audio’s Freqanalyst Logic Pro X Plug-in t...

How US legal firms can and must compete with robo-lawyer services | by Chris Knight | Jan, 2021

Most US legal firms, like their European counterparts, are steeped in tradition. Even newer firms formed by eager law graduates have their education rooted in similar structures. As legal journals and business magazines impress on the need to modernize and digitize how we work, the external threats to legal firms are growing, but how do we address them?Automated legal services like chatbots and form creators are a threat to the legal profession, or they can be viewed as a challenge to be met. As was the case with iTunes and Spotify for music and Amazon for retail, some tivals adapted to face a new market reality, others folded or sold up, or were driven into a particular niche, while more startups arrived to compete. Whatever the market, there are plenty of ways to survive and thrive as th...

IVR Deflection vs Conversational IVR: How to Improve Customer Satisfaction | by Haptik | Jan, 2021

Interactive Voice Response (IVR) is a ubiquitous yet disliked tool for customer service. While businesses adopted them to respond to customer queries and calls effectively and reduce support costs, it created massive resentment among customers. This dissatisfaction reached a point where a large US telecom carrier decided to do away with IVR altogether and allow customers to contact human agents directly. While IVR helped organizations achieve efficiencies to some extent along with reduced cost per call, customers found the impersonal interactions to be less than satisfactory.IVR Is Transforming To Be More RelevantDespite the shortcomings of IVR, it is not going away. Instead, it is undergoing a transformation to provide better ways to serve customers. Primary among the changes is the rise ...

How Social Bots are ruining the internet | by ELMARDINI | Jan, 2021

Social bots are computer programs that use fake profiles to spread masses of pre-written posts on social media. This often involves misinformation.There is now talk of a “bot epidemic” on Twitter. A quarter of all tweets on climate change and half of all Twitter profiles that comment on Corona are said to be controlled by bots.One of the ways these bots can be identified is that they often just forward content instead of making posts themselves. But a new AI-based software could soon change that.The GPT-3 program calculates word sequences based on their probability. For example, it can create songs or propaganda tweets from given words.Although AI bots can hardly keep up in real discourse, IT security expert Bruce Schneier believes that many forums will soon be dominated by bots debating w...

Can A Local Government Chatbot Help Communication With Constituents? | by Stephanie Vautour | Jan, 2021

If you’ve ever talked to people who work in a 311 call centre for a city or at the city administration office, you’ll probably have heard at least a few of the most commonly asked questions that they answer every single day. Often, the questions and the answers are simple and relatively quick. Even if each call is only three minutes long, if the same query is answered 30 times in a day, that’s 1.5 hours spent on saying, “Yes, after the holiday weekend, waste pickup services will return to normal schedule.”Imagine how much better city representatives could serve local constituents with more complex issues if they didn’t have to spend 1.5 hours per day on the simplest of questions?AI is quickly becoming more useful, helpful, and secure.

Individual implementation of chatbots in healthcare | by Aurosikha Priyadarshini | Jan, 2021

Shortening of the English “chat” to converse and “bot” (robot), a chatbot is similar to a conversational agent. Concretely, it is a machine program, designed most of the time to perform a defined task. Its particularity lies in its capacity to interact in natural language with the user. Because unlike other electronic dialogue tools such as interactive voice servers, the chatbot enables them to show themselves more or less freely through a text or voice interface or sometimes even hybrid.A chatbot with a textual interface will principally be obtainable from a smartphone or a computer. It can be a stand-alone appliance or integrated with a mobile app or a website. Communicating with “it” is very much like an SMS transfer, usually coupled with pre-defined question-and-answer series, in the c...

Transforming what’s possible in Media & Entertainment with AI | by PopcornApps

Artificial Intelligence has gone from the pages of science fiction to “all around you” like Dolby Surround Sound rather menacingly informs you at the start of every movie. Conversations that might have sounded ridiculous even five or ten years ago are commonplace now. The days of associating AI with humanoid Asimov-type robots are over: from healthcare to shopping to finance, AI is everywhere.Conversational AI has quietly changed the game for customer service and what companies can achieve with digital interfaces. Chatbots are ubiquitous — in banking, online shopping, food delivery — but we don’t necessarily register their presence. The idea, after all, with these intelligent robotic helpers, is that they should make the experience as natural as possible. With advancements in Machine Learn...

Transform the Air Traveler experience | by PopcornApps

Every business can benefit from improving customer experience and increasing employee productivity, but for industries affected by volatile external factors, this is especially essential. The airline industry faces unavoidable risk from the weather, fluctuating fuel costs, and geo-political events, among other external variables. But while these factors remain to a large extent outside their control, airlines often experience higher levels of customer dissatisfaction and decreased worker satisfaction and productivity as a result.Customers, too, have changed. They’re fickle and swap providers without hesitation. There are several behavioral factors impacting airline customer loyalty today:Frequent-flier programs have become more complex and spend-based.
