Generative AI has experienced a meteoric rise in popularity over the past year and a half, largely driven by OpenAI’s release of ChatGPT. This public launch in late 2022 brought AI conversations into the mainstream, showcasing the power of large language models (LLMs) to understand and respond to diverse prompts in a natural, conversational manner. Since then, Generative AI has advanced rapidly, with new models and techniques evolving at an unprecedented pace, unlocking its vast potential for transforming customer interactions.
Generative AI chatbots have become a revolutionary force, transforming how businesses engage with customers through faster, more personalized, and highly engaging experiences and setting new standards for service excellence.
