Abstract: An apparatus includes a memory and a processor. The memory stores first and second machine learning algorithms. The processor receives, from a user, voice signals associated with an information request and converts them into text. The processor uses the first machine learning algorithm to determine, based on the text, to automatically generate a reply to the request, rather than transmitting the request to an agent. The processor uses the second machine learning algorithm to generate, based on the set of text, the reply, which it transmits to the user. The processor receives feedback associated with the reply, indicating that the reply does or does not include the requested information. The processor uses the feedback to update either or both machine learning algorithms.

The processor receives, from a user, voice signals associated with an information request and converts them into text. The processor uses the first machine learning algorithm to determine, based on the text, to automatically generate a reply to the request, rather than transmitting the request to an agent. This determination indicates that the text is associated with a probability that the automatically generated reply includes the requested information that is greater than a threshold. The processor uses the second machine learning algorithm to generate, based on the set of text, the reply, which it transmits to the user. The processor receives feedback associated with the reply, indicating that the reply does or does not include the requested information.

Abstract: An interactive voice response system for interpreting sentiment of a conversation in real time is provided. The system may include a receiver. The receiver may be operable to receive a plurality of sentiment signals and a first portion of a conversation. The first portion of the conversation may include a plurality of interaction pairs. Each interaction pair may include an utterance and a system response. The system may include an utterance sentiment category determination module that may be operable to determine a sentiment category for each utterance. The system may include a sequential module. The sequential module may determine a conversation sentiment category based on the utterance sentiment categories and the order in which the utterance sentiment categories are received. The system may include an output module. The output module may output the conversation sentiment category. The conversation sentiment category may be used to determine a future system response.

Abstract: An entity may generate generic notifications for transmittal to a plurality of customers. One of the notifications may not be properly customized for a customer to whom the notification is scheduled for deployment. A system is provided that generates and refines generic notifications using artificial intelligence (“AI”). The system may include an application server running an AI engine for periodically monitoring, at a given point in time, historical customer data relating to less than a predetermined number of customers to ensure reduced, relative to a predetermined baseline, processing usage. The AI engine may determine, during the monitoring, that notifications transmitted by the platform to one of the customers have failed to elicit a positive response from the customer. The determination may prompt the AI engine to put the generic notification on hold for the customer and to perform additional steps to alter the generic notification to a targeted notification.
