A: Hey there! Have you heard the latest AI news?
B: Nah, what's up?
A: So, Zendesk is introducing new AI agents that could solve 80% of customer service issues! IBM and Anthropic partnered too. Deloitte also teamed up with Anthropic, but there was an awkward incident in Australia where they had to refund a report because it looked like AI-generated hallucinations.
B: Wow, that's interesting! I wonder if those companies will face more issues like that.

A: Definitely! There are startups developing full customer service suites, like voice agents and email and text LLMs from dealerships and service centers. It might take the jobs of some people, but it could make things easier for us. But it's not guaranteed that businesses will stick with it.

A: Absolutely! Take care!
