Question

What does the AI assistant answer if the customer asks whether they are talking to a person?

Answer

It says that artificial intelligence is answering, not a human. It offers to hand the question off to a human colleague.

The answer in detail

The disclosure is visible in the header and in the first message, so the customer knows from the start of the conversation that they are writing to artificial intelligence. The disclosure cannot be switched off.

The assistant answers the other questions from the company’s knowledge base: website, product pages, price list, delivery and return terms, FAQ, house rules, uploaded documents. If the customer’s question is not clear, it asks which product or order it is about.

If the customer wants a person, the assistant asks for their contact details and hands the question off to a colleague. The unanswered question appears in the weekly summary.

What you need to upload

  • the AI disclosure statement, tailored to the company
  • the FAQ and the house rules
  • the product pages and the price list
  • the delivery and return terms
