This is a fascinating discussion today about the advancement of chatbots with real value. I speak with Doug Stephen - President, Enterprise Learning Division, CGS and their new product, Cicero.
In a world of Agentic AI, chatbots like Sesame that have real-time interactions, with humanlike voice, intonation, and seemingly empathy, today we get to see this sort of technology in an iteration that helps people use an unscripted, customizable roleplay platform that dramatically enhances workplace training, powered by AI/XR.
Here’s the gist: think about the most difficult conversation you’ve ever had at work. Maybe it was a delicate conversation with a boss or colleague. Now imagine being able to practice that conversation in a risk-free, AI-driven environment. That’s Cicero.
