How to Build a Smart GenAI Call Center App

Building a smart call center app based on generative AI is a promising solution for improving the customer experience and call center efficiency. But developing this app requires overcoming challenges like scalability, costs and audio quality. By building and orchestrating an ML pipeline with MLRun, which includes steps like transcription, masking PII and analysis, data science teams can use LLMs to analyze audio calls from their call centers. In this blog post, we explain how.

Leveraging Kotlin Collections in Android Development

Kotlin has gradually replaced Java as the lingua franca of Android programming. It’s a more concise language than Java, meaning your code works harder and you can build leaner applications. And Kotlin Collections are fundamental. These collections play a fundamental role in our work as programmers by simplifying the organization and management of data. Whether it’s a list, set, map or other data structure, they allow us to categorize and store data logically.
