Introduction to Chatbots
Chatbots are computer programs designed to simulate conversation with human users. They use natural language processing (NLP) to interpret and respond to user inquiries. NLP is a branch of artificial intelligence (AI) that focuses on the interaction between computers and humans using natural language.
The process of NLP involves several steps.
One of the challenges of NLP is that human language is complex, and people often use slang, idioms, and colloquialisms that can be difficult for chatbots to understand. As a result, chatbots need to be trained on a large dataset of human language in order to accurately interpret and respond to user input. Additionally, chatbots need to be able to handle misspellings, typos, and other errors in user input.
For example, a chatbot designed to help customers order pizza might receive the message: "I want a large pepperoni pizza with extra cheese." The chatbot would use NLP to identify the user's intent (ordering a pizza) and extract the relevant information (size, toppings). It would then retrieve a response from its knowledge base, such as: "Thank you for your order. Your large pepperoni pizza with extra cheese will be ready in 20 minutes."
