Are the evangelists right? Is the latest iteration of AI here to kill the contact center? Or are those warnings nothing but sound and fury, part of the hype cycle for another shiny new toy in tech?

Over the decades, the CX industry has added the latest and greatest toys to its portfolio; toys which were initially regarded as major threats to its existence. This time, there is something different in the air, though. Something worth discussing.
