Описание: In this episode of the _Winners' Circle_, host Russ Fordyce sits down with *Daniel Ziv*, Global VP of AI and Analytics at *Verint*, to discuss the revolutionary impact of Generative AI on the customer experience (CX) landscape.



Verint recently took home an award from the Business Intelligence Group for *GenieBot*, a tool that is turning decades of "bottlenecked" call center data into actionable business intelligence in seconds. Daniel shares his 23-year journey from pioneering speech analytics to leading the charge in "agentic" AI.
