[{"type":"text","content":"\nWith the new release, Five9 is delivering on its strategy to leverage best of breed Large Language Models to “democratize” new areas of contact center automation that will improve processes, agent performance and the customer experience.\n\n SAN RAMON, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--\nFive9 (NASDAQ: FIVN), a leading provider of the intelligent cloud contact center, today announced the general availability of Five9 Agent Assist 2.0 with AI Summary, powered by OpenAI. Using the same generative AI technology behind ChatGPT, the solution summarizes customer call transcripts in seconds, yielding a rapid time to value by reducing manual, after-call work.\n\nThe key difference between this and prior versions is the removal of model training and manual categorization.
