    The Latency Paradox: Why Speed Alone Won’t Define the Future of AI Customer Engagement Host: Taran Nandha, Founder & CEO, Growth Natives Guest: Rukman Singh, Sr. Director – Customer Success & Experience, Growth Natives Episode Description Faster AI doesn’t always mean better customer experience. In this episode of Growth Digger, Taran Nandha and Rukman Singh explore the Latency Paradox—the idea that while AI can respond in milliseconds, customer engagement still fails when speed isn’t paired with context, intent, and meaningful resolution. They break down why instant responses often feel robotic, why speed at the interface doesn’t guarantee speed in the system, and how the next phase of AI customer engagement will be defined by understanding, orchestration, and trust—not just response time. What You’ll Learn Why sub-second AI responses can still create poor experiencesThe difference between response time and resolution timeHow lack of context makes fast AI feel slow and frustratingWhy legacy systems break the promise of real-time AIWhen instant engagement helps—and when it backfiresHow AI-to-human handoffs should feel seamless, not disruptiveWhat metrics matter more than speed in modern CXKey Takeaway Speed is no longer a competitive advantage—it’s table stakes. The future of AI customer engagement belongs to systems that are fast and thoughtful, fast and contextual, fast and human.
