In this episode, Dennis de Reus, co-founder of Stellar and former Head of AI at ABN Amro, reveals how AI-driven voice technology is redefining customer interactions. We discuss practical experiences, real customer feedback, and the capabilities of AI compared to human support agents.

Topics include:

✅ Real-world scenarios where customers prefer AI over human interactions.
✅ The strengths and limitations of AI in customer service.
