My company has two full time staff members running point on customer service. Directing people to the 5 bullet point FAQ page is about 85% of their job.

I dabbled with setting up an AI classifier to do this for them, and while it would remove 99% of those FAQ emails, the remaining 1% of the time it was so catastrophically wrong it made us press pause on the whole thing.
