# Conversational Azure OpenAI (ChatGPT) Accelerator



**Rapid, no-cost Custom Demo tailored to customer use cases, from internal HR/IT to external contact center to training, teaching and learning for public, consumers, constituents, students, faculty or staff. Focused on top use cases of GenAI conversation and summarization, plus live backend data integration.**



Here are two examples of customers — using this GenAI Accelerator and only in-house resources to deploy valuable automated conversations:

2. California State University (CSU System - [video highlights and quotes from their "CSU Tech Connect AI in July" pulic event series](https://microsoft.sharepoint.com/:w:/r/teams/CAF-SolutionAccelerators/_layouts/15/Doc.aspx?sourcedoc=%7BFAA8684F-7FE3-42F7-8396-56D83083E232%7D&file=%E2%80%98AI%20in%20July%E2%80%99%20CSU%20Event%20Highlights%20%E2%80%93%20Zammo.ai.docx&action=default&mobileredirect=true&share=IQFPaKj643_3QoOWVtgwg-IyAWePxWqaSBJpSP2M3L0v2_Q&clickparams=eyAiWC1BcHBOYW1lIiA6ICJNaWNyb3NvZnQgT3V0bG9vayIsICJYLUFwcFZlcnNpb24iIDogIjE2LjAuMTc4MzAuMjAxMTIiLCAiT1MiIDogIldpbmRvd3MiIH0%3D&CID=555333C5-3AC6-4655-A86B-75AAC76D885D&wdLOR=cF483B623-8EC0-4C15-ADBE-3A627BDFB1D3).



Demos of three different campuses and customer teams showing off their Azure-via-Zammo automated conversation projects, including:

- IT Help Desk

- Accessibility Technology Initiative (ATI)

- Student Grade Checker with backend integration to Canvas Learning Management System (LMS)—API integration completed in three weeks using only in house resources



Automating conversations across voice and text channels is a valuable, even essential, way to save money and improve customer and employee experience. Yet the slow, complex and expensive traditional process has blocked progress. Today, however, the era of manually curating knowledge bases is officially over.



With most customers requesting "ChatGPT using only my data," the best approach to do that efficiently and powerfully is by combining Azure OpenAI + Cognitive Search. This Accelerator quickly provides a ChatGPT experience using your web pages, knowledge base articles and data sources. It also deploys these automated conversations across voice, text and social channels, in multiple languages, with unified analytics.



The Conversational Azure OpenA Accelerator natively uses Microsoft’s most advanced AI including Azure OpenAI Service and Semantic Search in the software tooling of trusted partner Zammo.ai, which combines ~50 Azure resources in a unique voice-first architecture, residing securely on your Azure tenant.



The Accelerator enables simultaneous deployment of conversational content to chatbots, IVR, voice assistants and more in one click. This accelerator solution has virtually eliminated the need for in-depth IT involvement by providing a feature-rich platform that any user can navigate, regardless of their technical background. It provides customers with 24/7 automated assistance, leveraging OpenAI’s powerful ChatGPT language engine, combined with the Azure Conversational Language Understanding (CLU) and LUIS natural language processing (NLP) capabilities. This results in a conversational experience that can converse in human-like dialogue, respond intelligently, and capture content, all captured in omni-channel unified analytics which provides valuable insights to improve customer experience.   

 

 

 ## Challenges

* Staff is overwhelmed with repetitive questions & tasks consuming employee time and company costs 

* Customer expectations for 24/7 support and services  

* With a focus on inclusion and accessibility compliance, enterprises want to operate with multi-lingual capabilities and across channels 

* With so many channels of communication with customers and employees, businesses are drowning in channel-specific data and need consolidated analytics 

 

 ## Benefits

* Quickly leverage the most advanced technology, such as Azure OpenAI and ChatGPT, without a massive technical lift to learn how to build, connect and deploy each individual building block 

* Benefit from a 100% Azure solution that leverages dozens of Azure AI and data services, in a unique voice-first architecture, and resides on the customer Azure subscription, with a one-click deployment from the Azure Marketplace 

* Automatically generate conversational content from your existing content repositories, then simultaneously publish to multiple channels including website chatbots, IVR, voice assistants, Teams chatbot, etc. 

* Develop multi-turn conversational experiences and connect to backend systems and/or other Azure services like Cognitive Search, Document Translation, Custom Voice, AI Personalizer, Recommendation Engine, Speaker Verification, etc. 

* Rapidly augment existing IVR system by adding a conversational AI layer vs. Long, expensive rip and replace projects  

* Provide improved user-experience with 24/7 support and address routine and repetitive inquires much faster 

* Avoid lengthy and complex IT projects with a solution live in days or weeks not months or years 

* Automate multilingual intelligent responses with direct integration to Azure Translation Services 

* Provide a digital communication experience that is accessible and ADA compliant. 

* Templated, industry-specific conversation libraries can be re-used or easily modified to accelerate content creation and scale quickly
