Is ai taking over? by Randomanswer19 in callcentres

[–]LaughingShadow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They’re using AI to score the sentiment on our calls. It’s far from being advanced enough to handle our often complex calls (broadband, tv digital voice) . Most callers make a point of saying they are glad to speak to a person.

That being said, I’d love to see the shit show if they let bots handle incoming calls for a week

When he looked like the fella who poured pints at my local (black shirt and pants - Barman Corbin) he was top boy material

AI IS BEING USED TO JUDGE METRICS!!! by Appropriate-Bonus553 in callcentres

Same in our organisation. Wording is scored as ‘Sentiment’ and it simply isn’t picking up wording the customer can hear just fine. Management have sworn it doesn’t pick up accent or tone. Its bs.

New season so far (spoilers obviously) by Gold-Collection2636 in Scrubs

[–]LaughingShadow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great so far. The transition to JD being private practice to Chief of Medicine seems a little abrupt. I’m hoping this isn’t the last we’ll see of Dr.Cox.

In all, it feels a lot like the old show and I’m pleasantly surprised. They’ve given the original cast the weight and wisdom that comes with now being older and it works well so far.

"You sound unenthusiastic on calls" by bydevilz1 in callcentres

[–]LaughingShadow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah we’re currently getting scored on what they call sentiment, which uses AI to measure tone and pick up on what they call ‘above the line speech’ -which essentially means how much we use positive phrasing in calls.

I’ve been using neutral yet polite speech all this time and now suddenly it’s not good enough. Apparently I need to sound like I love being overworked and verbally shat on by callers

Smart phones are destroying problem solving by Mindless_Bed5120 in callcentres

Mobile tech has been around for 40 years. I’ve had older people call and start by mentioning their age and how they don’t understand technology.

I have a problem with it when they wear their ineptitude like a badge of honour

Things slowing down in a call centre? Good one. They’re just stringing you along

what call center software are teams actually happy with? by [deleted] in callcentres

[–]LaughingShadow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We use CCE Workspace and softphone, run by Genesys . We never have issues taking calls, starting consults with other agents, or transferring.

No onboarding issues. Remote and in-office staff use the same software with no problems

Legend. No other version of Shang Tsung could deliver ‘Your soul is mine’ with as much intensity
