When support team collaboration tools and bot operations are built to facilitate rather than disrupt, your brand will offer a richer customer experience. While bots handle simpler tasks, you can escalate more complex tasks to humans. This communication model is scalable, opening up pathways for further bot-human dialogue. However, it’s safe to say that bots won’t replace humans in the foreseeable future. For now, they're just here to help us.
