Increasing Focus on Providing Personalized Customer Service in Real-Time to Drive the Market
In today’s competitive and dynamic business environment, customer engagement is a crucial and dominant influencing factor to achieve success. This has resulted in the adoption of artificial intelligence tools to provide more personalized services in real-time. The AI-integrated platform supports customer services by augmenting messages, sort & support inquiry, email & phone support, and assisting agents, among others. For instance, the start-up Cogito has developed a tool based on deep learning and behavioral science for real-time conversation analysis. It records and analyses the content and the tone of the customer and based on its insights it provides how the customer is feeling. The company implemented its bot in an insurance company with 200 agents. The bot supported the agents in real-time and achieved 26 percent improvement in its promotion and issue resolution procedures.
Thus, the increasing importance of customer services across industries is likely to drive this market.
Growing BFSI Industry to Expand Opportunities for the AI Market
The BFSI industry is likely to widen the implementation of AI. It is already using the technology for trading decisions, chatbots, credit scoring applications, and studying financial market impact analysis. For instance, many banks are using machine learning tools to create trading robots that can self-analyze and teach how to trade, based on historical data. Additionally, BFSI is using AI technology for providing personalized advice to its users regarding debt management, investment, refinancing, and more. Also, the technology has extremely well-proven efficacy in detecting fraudulent activities. This is likely to create extensive opportunities for the technology.
Limitations in Protecting Privacy to Restrict Artificial Intelligence Market Growth
The AI market is likely to face challenges regarding data privacy and varying algorithms. The technology uses machine learning and deep learning tools to offer related results to the users. These tools such as recommendation engines, search algorithms, and adtech neural networks exploit sensitive data of the user. Further, AI algorithms creates the new bit of information based on the historical data, without the consent of the user. Owing to this, Europe brought General Data Protection Regulation, to control the misuse of personal data generated. This is likely to hamper the demand for the technology.
