ElevenLabs powers many AI voices in customer service calls, and its CEO suggests businesses should disclose when customers are talking to a bot. This transparency is advised until AI voices become universally expected.

AI-assisted summary based on the listed source.

ElevenLabs powers the AI voice on the other end of a lot of customer service calls, and its CEO told me this week that businesses should probably tell you that — at least until getting a machine is what everyone expects anyway.

Disclosure about AI voice interactions impacts customer trust and sets expectations for automated service. As AI voice technology becomes widespread, norms around transparency will shape user experience.

Business readers can use this as a signal of where capital, competition, or market attention is moving.
