That\u2019s kind of what a frustrated you want to tell a \u2018smart\u2019 kiosk sometimes! Here\u2019s why. Kiosks are deployed as a replacement for human representatives. Hence you expect them to exhibit intelligence that a human representative would possess. But most current kiosks have limited intelligence making even a smart kiosk quite dumb. For instance, even a kiosk with a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.interaction-design.org\/literature\/topics\/voice-user-interfaces\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">voice user interface (VUI)<\/a>&nbsp;might not be able to differentiate words in nuanced speech.&nbsp;Consider two words: \u201cdon&#8217;t know\u201d and \u201cdunno.\u201d Both words mean the same. But a kiosk with limited intelligence would not identify both the words as the same. It would interpret both the words differently and get confused. This often impacts the flow of operations, and kiosks in such a situation will not be able to provide an appropriate response. Thus, limited intelligence in kiosks can end up as weak interactions with users.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"quote-left\"><strong>Learning is always a painful process &#8211; Lucy<\/strong><\/span> <\/p>\n<p>Another movie, another gem that seems to apply to smart kiosks perfectly.
