1. A computer implemented method, in a data processing system comprising a processor and a memory comprising instructions which are executed by the processor to cause the processor to implement a call center question and answer system, the method comprising: ingesting, through an instant messaging application, one or more original questions from one or more call center agents; ingesting, through the instant messaging application, one or more answers from the one or more call center agents, the one or more answers associated with the one or more original questions; analyzing, through a cognitive system, each of the one or more answers associated with the one or more original questions; incorporating the analysis of the one or more answers into the analysis of the one or more answers and the one or more original questions; receiving, by one of the one or more call center agents, one or more additional questions from a customer to which the call center agent cannot answer; receiving, through the instant messaging system, the one or more additional questions; determining, in real-time, one or more proposed answers to each additional question based on analysis of the one or more original questions and answers; determining, in real-time, a confidence score for each of the one or more proposed answers; if the confidence score of the proposed answer exceeds a confidence threshold, providing, in real-time, the proposed answer to the call center agent; receiving, in real-time, through a feedback module, feedback on the proposed answer from one or more subject matter experts or call center managers; and incorporating, in real-time, the feedback on the proposed answer into the analysis of the one or more original questions and the one or more additional questions.
