AI IN CUSTOMER SERVICE MARKET DRIVERS:

  • An increase in the global accessibility of the internet is expected to boost the demand for the AI in customer service market.

One of the primary drivers for the development of the global AI customer services market can be connected to the expanding accessibility of the Internet among individuals. With the increase in internet accessibility, businesses like finance, retail, and others have marked their presence on online platforms. These increases in online businesses create the growth of various fast-paced customer services, like chatbots and virtual assistants.

The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) stated in its report that the internet availability among the globe's population has increased constantly. According to the information, approximately 4.9 billion of the population had the availability of the Internet in 2021, which expanded to around 5.1 billion in 2022 and advanced to 5.4 billion in 2023.

The United States region is expected to have a considerable market share. The United States is one of the major AI-adopting countries. With the continuous trend of mechanical progressions and advancements over different industry verticals, the necessity for AI service solutions such as chatbots, generative AI, and virtual assistance is additionally anticipated to provide positive expansion.

Such high engagement has motivated companies to adopt a much wider customer-centric approach to providing a seamless customer experience.

The USA is the hub for technological innovations, and favorable investment in artificial intelligence has provided new growth prospects for such technology.
