0:00.0	If you want to nail customer service these days, you need to be providing real-time personalised
0:04.1	answers. And in order to do that, you need an AI agent. And I don't mean your average chatbot.
0:10.1	Our sponsor, Sierra, helps businesses build better, more human customer experiences with AI.
0:16.2	Their agents are so clever that they can integrate right into your company's systems and
0:20.6	workflows,
0:21.3	enabling them to not only chat with customers, but also allowing these agents to carry out
0:25.8	actions for you. So, for example, if your customer needed to process a return, or they need
