“Artificial Intelligence Puts on a Poker Face: Introducing ‘Emotion Canceling’ Tech for Call Center Operators”
“AI ‘emotion canceling’ tech to help call center operators”
“[The technology] uses artificial intelligence to analyse the customer’s voice, filtering out emotional tones so that call centre staff only hear the factual content of a customer’s speech.’”
Oh, what a glorious age we live in. A magnificent era where Artificial intelligence (AI) technology comes swooping in like a super-powered therapist providing us with delightful ‘emotion detection’ and ‘emotion filtering’ solutions. Bet you never saw that one in any of the Terminator movies, huh?
This ray of technological sunshine, my friends, is a godsend for our lovely call center pals tirelessly taking on all shades of human exasperation — in full HD audio, no less. Imagine talking to a disgruntled customer, but all you hear is “Hello, here is my problem, and this is what I need”— free of the emotional turmoil. Ah, the magic of robo-filtered conversation!
The head honchos at the tech company we’re speaking of have achieved this feat via the artful science of AI. A phenomenon that combines the voice recognition capacities of Siri, Alexa, or your device of choice, with something almost resembling human empathy. An unmatched blend of cutting-edge tech mixed with a sprinkle of “been there, done that” buddy-like understanding.
Yes, it’s quite an impressive step up from playing solitaire or window-shopping on Amazon to pass the time between calls. Not to mention, the AI’s impressive interpretation and conversion of emotional undertones to more tolerable, managerial information.
The real kicker, however, is that this badboy doesn’t just filter out those pesky emotions, no, it’s a multi-tasking marvel. It also produces an analysis addressing the emotional state of the customer—like a complimentary heaping scoop of psychoanalysis with your daily serving of drudgery.
That’s right, you get to laugh in the face of confrontation, technological-style. Why burn under the magnified rays of customer frustration when AI can tune all that pesky emotion into the smooth jazz of cold, hard facts?
And thus, humanity takes another step out of the emotional melee and into the clean, sharp world of analytical detachment. Seems like artificial intelligence has got our backs once more, proving (again) that technology is truly the friend who comes through when you’re down…or overwhelmed by irate customer calls.
So, hats off to this back-up singer named AI – making the concert of professional life a lot more harmonious. Well, unless that customer calls in raging about their malfunctioning AI. But hey, nobody said life was perfect, so let’s enjoy the peace while it lasts.
