Personally, I don’t use it much. I prefer to go to the FAQs and read what I need myself

@andres_rosas_sanchez Totally understandable! FAQs let you find exactly what you need on your own terms, which can be more efficient for some people.

Chatbots save me time when I'm shopping online, especially for routine tasks like finding store hours or checking a return policy. However, if I have an issue with an order that needs more attention, the chatbot usually isn't much help, and I have to contact customer service directly

@ana_intescu Chatbots are great for quick tasks, but I understand needing a real person for more complicated order issues

@maali_baali Absolutely! AI chatbots are a game-changer for online shopping.
They are great for basic queries but lack human touch. Complex issues still need a real person what I think.

@mark_curz I completely agree! 💯
I appreciate that chatbots can answer my questions immediately, and they’re usually good at things like recommending products based on what I'm looking for. But I still prefer talking to a real person for anything more complex or when I need a more personalized response.

They are quite useful at delaying me from interacting with a human!

@bianca_tanase totally! From the company's perspective I love them. They are a boon for resource efficiency in an otherwise resource-heavy department.

@duffdevone I get what you're saying—chatbots can feel like a barrier at times. But they can also handle quick tasks like order status or product info, freeing up human agents for more complex issues.
I think AI chatbots are getting better, but there’s still room for improvment.

@adriadna_mascioli Totally agree 💯
AI chatbots can be hit or miss for customer service in my experience. Sometimes they give relevant, helpful answers. But other times it's clear they don't understand the nuances of my issue and just give generic FAQ-style replies. I'd say they're useful for handling simple, common inquiries but for anything complex I still prefer a human agent who can think critically about my unique situation. Curious what AI advancements could improve this in the future though!
