I think of this as the kiosk economy. It's like how businesses introduce kiosks even when having a human employee would be more convenient, just for the sake of greater profit. The biggest problem with AI customer service is that a human employee would've let a minor issue slide without escalating it. But a chatbot often inflames the situation, and by the time the customer reaches a human agent, they're already furious. Most people aren't rational or logical. Non verbal feedback, like acknowledging someone's anger and showing empathy, is incredibly important.
