Chatbots and voicebots are quick and easy. No problem at all. That's the myth that needs to be shattered here. Many people, when they embark on their first conversational AI project, underestimate the amount of time and effort required to design, build, deploy and maintain their assistants. 

Matt Portillo, Conversation Design Lead at Amelia, joins us to share why conversational AI projects aren't really projects; they're long-term journeys as well as how you should prepare and the steps you should take to ensure success.

Voice AI has come a long way in the last few years. Why, then, do we still get asked to provide secret passwords, shoe size and your mother’s pet fish’s maiden name before anyone at any company will speak to you about your needs?

The scope and quality of AI-mediated interactions that are now possible is incredible, but there remain fundamental security challenges that are difficult to overcome. For many interactions, we need to know who the user is claiming to be and be confident that they are that person. Most of these challenges keep companies stuck asking silly quiz questions to validate who you are, instead of using technology to make it easier.

Matt Smallman's new book Unlock Your Call Centre: A proven way to upgrade security, efficiency and caller experience covers these challenges in forensic detail and lays out an approach to resolving them using modern technologies such as Voice Biometrics and Network Authentication that is as applicable to Voice User Interfaces as it is to the Call Centre.

Matt's book is launched today and he will be joining me live (5pm BST, 12pm EDT, 9am PDT) on the VUX World podcast to discuss the book and it's implications for Voice AI. You can join us live and be able to ask questions

Many organisations have aspirations to scale their AI automation efforts. If you have a chatbot that's working well, then why not?

Why not find new use cases, enter new channels, serve more customers and improve everything all the time?

Sounds great, but how? What team would you need? What skills? What technology will underpin your strategy and how is it best implemented?

We're joined by Rasa CTO, Alan Nichol, to discuss how enterprise brands can scale their conversational automation properly.

By now, you know that implementing a conversational AI strategy isn't child's play. It's pretty hard work. And there are many moving parts that need to align to create a digital assistant that does what your customers need it to. Language classification at scale, catering for multiple languages, scaling across channels, tools, systems, data; do you outsource the whole thing or do it yourself? So many questions.

To dive into this and shed some light on how you should approach it, and how humans and bots working together in real time can lead to epic customer experiences, we're joined by Lisa Michaud, Product Director, Interactions.
