The premise
AI conversation designers build the dialogue scaffolds that LLMs operate within. The job is part linguistic, part UX, part prompt-engineering, all about graceful failure.
What AI does well here
- Map intent flows for multi-turn voice or chat experiences
- Write fallback responses that recover from low-confidence states
- Design persona consistency across hundreds of turns
What AI cannot do
- Make a generic LLM sound on-brand without persona scaffolding
- Replace voice talent for genuinely emotive interactions
- Solve poor model quality with better dialogue design alone
