Unsupervised Learning: Embeddings for Customer Experience (CX) Professionals 

This course dives into the exciting world of embeddings, a powerful unsupervised learning technique within Artificial Intelligence (AI). Embeddings transform complex customer data into a lower-dimensional space, capturing essential relationships and similarities crucial for enhancing customer experience (CX) initiatives. 

• Explain the concept of embeddings and their role in representing customer data for CX analysis.

• Understand different embedding techniques, including Word2Vec and GloVe.

• Apply embedding models to extract meaningful representations of customer information like text reviews, product descriptions, or user demographics.

• Leverage embeddings for tasks like customer similarity analysis, recommendation systems, and chatbot development.

• Evaluate the effectiveness of embeddings and interpret the results for actionable insights in CX strategy.
