CVS Cuts Costs With AI and Job Cuts
AI to Handle Customer Queries
CVS Health Corp is implementing artificial intelligence (AI) to automate customer service tasks, a move that is expected to save the company money. The pharmacy chain will roll out a chatbot to handle queries from customers, freeing up human employees to focus on more complex tasks.
Job Cuts Impact Hartford
In addition to AI implementation, CVS Health announced plans to cut 5,000 jobs nationwide, a move that could impact its Hartford location. The company said the job cuts are part of a cost-saving measure and are not related to the AI rollout.
Challenges Ahead
Despite the cost-cutting measures, CVS Health CEO Karen Lynch acknowledged that the company faces challenges in the coming year. The company has lowered its annual profit forecast and flagged challenges for next year's outlook.
