What is the Operationally-Sound AI in Customer Service course about?
When organizations scale through acquisition, customer service AI systems from disparate platforms collide, creating blind spots in decision logic, inconsistent compliance handling, and operational fragility. Without a sound architectural approach, these systems require constant manual override, delay integration timelines, and increase risk exposure during transition periods.
