3:00 PM Beyond Efficiency: The Current Frontier for AI Agents

AI is irreversibly changing customer service. But as AI Agents become more capable, many organizations still use them for efficiency instead of transformation.

The real opportunity is to design customer experiences that reflect this new reality, where AI Agents take on deeper, more complex work and free teams to focus on solving higher-value problems. In this session, we’ll explore what that looks like in practice and how AI Agents are transforming customer service strategy, teams, and the work itself.

This session will discuss:

  • Moving from “support AI” to “customer-journey AI”
  • The CX leader’s role in connecting people, data, and dialogue
