Summary

Questions the real-world effectiveness of AI copilots for contact center agents, wondering if they truly improve speed and trust or just add distractions.

Im seeing more contact centers roll out AI copilots that feed agents answers and prompts during live calls. On paper it sounds useful, faster ramp time for new hires, better consistency across the team. But I’m interested to know how it works in real life. Does it help agents move faster or does it just add more pop ups to ignore and do reps trust the suggestions once the tool gets something wrong? Would be good to hear from anyone who has used one at scale
