How is AI Impacting
the Customer Experience?

Alana Widdess

Senior Partner and Digital Commerce Practice Leader At Tata Consultancy

You’ve been using artificial intelligence for years, whether you realize it or not. Every time you unlock your computer or your iPhone with facial recognition, you’re using AI. If you’ve ever gotten a fraud alert from your bank, that suspicious transaction was flagged by AI. 

But, how is your business leveraging the power of AI? Most companies have been pretty slow to adapt—and we can’t blame them. Giving any technology the ability to act without your involvement creates risk. And these days, we’re all very risk averse.

If you’re curious about the role AI is playing in business today and how you can begin to incorporate it into your business, join us for a very special Business as "Un"usual livestream event on June 15th with our guest Alana Widdess. 

She’ll share her perspective as Senior Partner and Digital Commerce Practice Leader at Tata Consultancy. Together, we’ll explore:

Session Takeaways

  • How are B2B companies using AI to deliver a B2C customer experience?
  • When does it make sense for companies to incorporate AI?
  • What’s next in AI?
