AI Chatbots - Learners of the Future

Artificial Intelligence chatbots are applications or interfaces that use natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning to generate responses to text or voice inputs. Chatbots learn through processing data (questions and answers) or a stored knowledge database. They learn through exposure to word usage and syntax, and by inferring from previous answers how satisfied the customers were. Chatbots also learn through sentiment analysis, where they interpret customer emotions. Algorithms can also train chatbots to recognize speech and voice patterns, detect fraud, and predict queries for generating FAQs.

These virtual agents improve customer experiences using a business’s content and data. Businesses use AI-integrated chatbots to offer speed of service, which means custom support at all times. They automatically answer the most frequently asked questions and guide customers towards the next step of the user journey, thus increasing the chances of a conversion or purchase. This kind of automation helps the support team save time and focus on other important tasks. Taken together, AI chatbots give customers what they expect - a smooth customer experience.

Types of Chatbots

 

Menu-based Bots

Menu-based bots are designed in ways that look like  mini-websites built into the website’s chat widget. Such bots understand the user’s intent and guide the conversation by providing the user with a predetermined set of options based on their ready-made knowledge base. They are quick and efficient with their responses. With every selection, the user’s intent becomes clearer and the choices keep becoming more specific. 

Hence, Menu-based chatbots streamline user experience without having the customers to type queries manually.

 

Rule-based bots

Rule-based bots work on a predetermined set of rules and responses based on keywords. Their architecture consists of a UI, natural-language processing, and the rule engine which takes less time to train the bots and gets easily integrated with legacy systems. They are flexible automated systems that help businesses serve their customers better while saving them time and money. 

Rule-based bots are presumed to be unsuccessful when a user begins to deviate from a predesigned user journey by being asked complex questions that involve a lot of variables. For businesses that have repetitive customer interactions, chatbots can be programmed with dozens of rules so that they respond to customer questions and provide them with quick resolutions effortlessly.

 

Natural Language Processing (NLP) chatbots

If businesses want to give their customers a helpful, relevant, and engaging conversation, NLP chatbot does just that. A customer’s experience with NLP chatbots is more human and personal as they understand how humans speak by processing both spoken and written language. Such automation can help businesses provide valuable customer experience and convert more leads.

NLP chatbots work on a combination of computational linguistics, machine learning, and deep learning models through Natural language processing, Natural language understanding, and Natural language generation. They provide round-the-clock support and also offer native-level multilingual customer service that allow businesses to scale across the global market.

Machine Learning Chatbots

Machine Learning chatbots work with the help of a human operator and they learn designing without natural language processing. While they automate several customer service operations, they can also serve an unlimited customer base at a time. In particular, through machine learning bots, businesses can deliver personalized experiences by analyzing customer interactions, anticipating their needs and then providing suggestions.

ML chatbots can also gather information and gain new understandings about your specific audience without relying on cookies. They can obtain customer email addresses and phone numbers, find out important customer interests and behaviors, and assess leads automatically.

 

Hybrid chatbots

Hybrid chatbots use multiple technologies, AI elements, and rule-based logic to provide a more versatile and effective customer experience. They merge rule-based systems with machine learning and artificial intelligence to leverage the strengths of all technologies to understand customer queries, script chatbot flow, expand the scope, keep resources updated by auto-recording questions, etc.

Hybrid bots help businesses create a balance between automation and personalization. They work very well at addressing simple inquiries while also engaging in complex discussions and providing accurate and updated information. They also function in a way to adhere to privacy laws and industry norms.

 

Voice chatbots

AI voice chatbots make communications between the company and customer quicker and direct. They recognize, interpret, and analyze vocal input and respond to the speaker in a similar speech in real-time. Using Natural language processing technology and artificial intelligence, bots identify markers in the speech to piece information together and match it to the dataset it’s been trained with. They’re continuously learning, making every future interaction much more seamless than the previous one.

The biggest advantage with voice chatbots is that they are the fastest form of human interaction compared to the other types of bots. They address customer’s queries from anywhere and at any time, enhancing their overall experience.
