Salesforce predicts AI agents will increase call center traffic

Salesforce executive Kishan Chetan has predicted that personal AI agents will increase, rather than decrease, call center traffic. Chetan, who leads Agentforce, suggested that these agents might require frequent redialing, potentially leading to more customer interactions. However, the company has not provided any supporting data, surveys, or call-volume figures to substantiate this forecast. AI

IMPACT This perspective suggests that AI agents may create new operational challenges and workflows in customer service, rather than simply automating existing tasks.
