Where AI helps, and where human judgment still wins
AI earns its place in the customer journey when it removes friction — scheduling, waiting, repeating information — and loses its way when it replaces judgment and empathy. Human-centered AI in customer experience keeps people at the center and puts technology in service of them, the approach One Medical used to turn healthcare's most frustrating moments into reasons for loyalty. This guide draws a practical line between what to automate and what to keep human.
