Abstract
The global business environment of the twenty-first century is undergoing a radical transformation driven by a shift in how companies interact with their customers. In this digital era, firms are no longer judged solely on the quality of their physical products or financial performance. Instead, the modern consumer evaluates a brand based on its accessibility, responsiveness, and the seamlessness of its digital support ecosystem.
As societal expectations evolve, traditional human-led customer service is being augmented, and in many cases replaced, by Artificial Intelligence (AI). Chatbots and AI-based support systems have emerged as the primary framework for implementing and assessing this new standard of corporate accountability and service delivery.
