Chatbots Are AI's Simplest Application - Real AI Exists in CX
Agentic AI · Recorded impact score: 2/5
The article argues that the public perception of AI as a new technology is misleading because AI has been silently powering B2B systems for decades, from autonomous insulin pumps and medical diagnostics to factory robotics and enterprise support. The first wave of generative chat (ChatGPT, Claude) made AI visible, but chatbots are actually the simplest applications. The article traces AI's evolution from embedded statistical AI to agentic AI, highlighting key milestones like FDA approvals for autonomous insulin dosing and Intel's acquisition of Mobileye. It concludes with practical advice for CX leaders, emphasizing process redesign, back-office automation, and human-in-the-loop governance. It cites MIT and McKinsey data showing most generative AI pilots fail to impact P&L and urges organizations to rebuild workflows around AI rather than layer it on top.
- ChatGPT reached 100 million monthly users within roughly two months of launch (per UBS analysts).
- FDA approved Medtronic's MiniMed 670G in 2016, the world's first hybrid closed-loop insulin system.
