What it does best
An AI receptionist is best at what is predictable: booking a slot, taking an order, answering opening hours and prices. There it is faster than a human and never gets tired.
Where a human should take over
It is worse at what needs judgement: an angry customer asking for compensation, a question that depends on three things at once, or something that never happened before. There a human should take over – and what matters is that the handover is quick and the colleague gets the whole history.
