Solving Problems and Making Decisions

Recommendation systems are designed to provide users with information to assist in their decisions. In the case of Privacy Bird, this decision is whether to provide personal information to different companies. Most of you have experienced phishing attacks, in which you receive an apparently legitimate e-mail message directing you to a fraudulent website with the intent of getting you to enter personal information such as a credit card number. Recommendations to leave a suspected phishing site can be incorporated into the warnings, much as in Privacy Bird. However, for such warnings to be effective, various usability issues, such as the criteria for when to display the warning, what information should be displayed to users, how that information should be displayed, and how to encourage selection of the safe action, need to be taken into account when the warning/recommendation system is designed (Yang et al., 2017).

As the name suggests, virtual personal assistants assist in finding useful information, when asked via text or voice. Few of the major applications of machine learning here are: Speech recognitionSpeech to text conversionNatural language processingText to speech conversion (Figure 2.18)

Talking computers and voice user interfaces (VUI) have already been widely addressed in science fiction, but every day it is more common to find voice user interfaces on various devices such as desktop computers, smartphones, smartwatches, smart TVs and videogames. These interfaces have also been adopted in virtual assistants (VAs), systems that assist their users in daily functions, ranging from organizing the agenda to controlling smart objects.

Integrating developing technology trends into customer care is considered an inevitable future development. The number of calling customers consistently overloads traditional PBXs, and the traditional automated handling and interaction systems typically used to control simple interactions and long calls are not very efficient (Brambilla & Molinelli, n.d.; Guzman, 2019). However, with the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) complex queries can be resolved more quickly. A Virtual Assistant (VA) can automatically assist customers by solving frequently asked questions and customer problems according to available scenarios. In such a scenario, a VA can easily access base warehouse information and internal data to find answers for customers without consulting multiple sources.
