FAQs

Ethical AI is the idea that all AI applications and software should be built to help people, and it should be done in a safe and responsible way. There are several core principles related to ethical AI that businesses must consider when developing their technology. These include things such as transparency, sustainability, trust, and security.

You’ll need to devise a list of metrics to help determine if AI is helping your business. These metrics can include conversion rates, average resolution times, email click-through rates (CTRs) and churn rates. Make sure you take baseline recordings prior to implementing AI.

Then you simply need to repeat the tests once the AI is up and running after a certain period of time to see whether the metric scores have improved.

No. AI has its place, but it isn’t mandatory. On the one hand, AI is now so widely used that it is part of our everyday lives. It’s also improved efficiencies so that you may find it increasingly difficult to keep up with competitors if you choose to go without it, although a small business that operates primarily through human interaction may not need as much AI infrastructure to succeed.

On the other hand, human-generated content is still outperforming AI-generated content in search rankings, and - overwhelmingly - people still want to speak to a human being, rather than a chatbot.

The best way forward is to take measured, careful steps, ensuring you’re getting value out of AI and using it responsibly.
