Chatbot

Question

How does one create an effective chatbot?

Answer 1

To create a chatbot with simple trigger responses, we use if-else/case statements to generate different replies from bot based on the user's input matching one of the defined triggers.

To create an advanced chatbot, we use AI so that the bot can respond to and understand whatever the user says, without being limited to a list of words and sentences. You can use several libraries and frameworks for that(for example in Python, you could use NLTK, Chatterbot, Rasa etc).
