“Chatbots and voice assistants piqued our commercial interests in the 2010s. We saw many companies start using Messenger bots for customer service. But this was a stepping stone in using AI to communicate with customers. The real opportunity is with digital humans because they take the expressive, engaging element of humans and combine it with the scalable nature of software.” – QuHarrison Terry, Founder of Trends Exchange and Speaker at Digital Humans Day

Early-adopters of digital human technology includes Deloitte, UBS, IBM, Singtel, BMW, and Vodafone. Each of these companies employed UneeQ – a leading digital human provider – to build digital humans to solve for improving customer experience as part of their digital transformation strategy.

“If you have a couple of hours free on July 14th, I’d highly recommend you attend Digital Humans Day.
