by itself.

But it's still early.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Your AI Meeting Agents Aren’t Enough: Otter.ai's Sam Liang on Enterprise Knowledge

There's still a lot of work to do.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Your AI Meeting Agents Aren’t Enough: Otter.ai's Sam Liang on Enterprise Knowledge

That's where you asked me earlier about challenges.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Your AI Meeting Agents Aren’t Enough: Otter.ai's Sam Liang on Enterprise Knowledge

A big challenge to overcome is still how do you build the voice agent so that it can conduct a call effectively so that it can achieve certain objectives.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Your AI Meeting Agents Aren’t Enough: Otter.ai's Sam Liang on Enterprise Knowledge

ask questions, answer questions, and maybe lead the user to convince the user to do something.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Your AI Meeting Agents Aren’t Enough: Otter.ai's Sam Liang on Enterprise Knowledge

So how do you

The Neuron: AI Explained
Your AI Meeting Agents Aren’t Enough: Otter.ai's Sam Liang on Enterprise Knowledge

build that agent.

The Neuron: AI Explained

Part of that is to really model human conversation.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Your AI Meeting Agents Aren’t Enough: Otter.ai's Sam Liang on Enterprise Knowledge

We can train that agent by giving it tens of thousands of sales calls.

If it's a sales agent, for example, it's how a good sales rep convince the customer to buy their product

then if you give it enough data, the AI agent could do a pretty good job too, or can even outperform a human agent.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Your AI Meeting Agents Aren’t Enough: Otter.ai's Sam Liang on Enterprise Knowledge

Yeah.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Your AI Meeting Agents Aren’t Enough: Otter.ai's Sam Liang on Enterprise Knowledge

We actually already, another project we have, it's a real-time sales coach.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Your AI Meeting Agents Aren’t Enough: Otter.ai's Sam Liang on Enterprise Knowledge

It's actually just basically what you said.

The Neuron: AI Explained

If the customer asks some tough questions,

The Neuron: AI Explained
Your AI Meeting Agents Aren’t Enough: Otter.ai's Sam Liang on Enterprise Knowledge

If the sales rep is relatively junior, he or she cannot answer a lot of questions effectively yet.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Your AI Meeting Agents Aren’t Enough: Otter.ai's Sam Liang on Enterprise Knowledge

We have this real-time sales coach that actually listens to a customer, hears the objection, and then the sales coach will pop up an answer on the screen in real time.

The Neuron: AI Explained

So if you're doing it on Zoom, the sales rep doesn't read the answer back to the customer.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Your AI Meeting Agents Aren’t Enough: Otter.ai's Sam Liang on Enterprise Knowledge

So it's almost like cheating in an exam.
