maarthandam.com -- Salesforce’s aggressive push to automate customer operations has entered a phase of public reckoning after senior executives publicly admitted that the company overestimated AI’s readiness for real-world deployment and moved too quickly in replacing human staff.
According to executives familiar with the transition, automated systems struggled with nuanced issues, escalations, and long-tail customer problems. The result was declining service quality, higher complaint volumes, and internal firefighting to stabilize operations that had once been handled by experienced staff.
