A recent study by computer technology corporation Oracle showed that 8 in 10 companies are planning to adopt chatbots by 2020, and Chatbots Magazine claimed 2018 to be the ‘year of the chatbot’. With billions of eyeballs to compete over within these messaging interfaces, and NLP technologies having advanced over the last two years, potentially the chatbot phenomenon will come to fruition in 2018.
So how do brands get chatbots right? Can chatbots truly relay the nuances of human conversations? Can they be broad enough, yet detailed enough, to provide an experience that surpasses traditional interfaces and becomes a customer’s first port of call?

These software-based tools are now taking center stage in most company interactions with their customers. Here are ways chatbots are redefining customer experiences.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is in the news all the time, so you would be forgiven for thinking that there is a strong mainstream understanding of what AI is, and what it does.But the reality is that there is still a widespread misconception about the truth of AI. This is partly due to the dramatic doomsday scenarios we hear in the media, but the deeper problem is that there are still few concrete examples of where AI has actually been mastered and implemented in the real world.This has to change: the truth is, there are so many exciting applications of AI that will improve people’s lives, and customer experience has some of the biggest potential for disruption.
