Hi there.
I'm the Sonos AI support agent.
You can talk to me just like you would with anyone else.
Oh, hi.
Did you say you were an AI?
Yes.
I'm an AI-powered assistant here to help you with anything.
Sonos-related.
I've borrowed a colleague's Sonos wireless speaker as an excuse to call up its customer support line.
Because I know it won't be a human that answers the phone.
Yeah, no, I'm looking for help.
So I've brought my speaker into the office today,
and I'd like to connect it to the office Wi-Fi, and I'm having difficulties.
So can you help?
Are you seeing any specific errors in the Sonos app?
No.
For example.
OK, give me a moment here.
AI customer support agents like this one are spreading fast.
