NLP-Enabled Chatbots to Break Real-time Customer Service Barriers

Technology is delivering unique solutions like NLP to take cognitive bots closer to natural interactions.

FREMONT, CA: Chatbots have become integral to many companies. Customer service has improved manifold after the deployment of chatbots. However, there are many limitations to these chatbots, and everybody is looking forward to better versions. Natural Language Processing (NLP) is paving the way for smarter, convenient interactions between computers and people. When applied to chatbots, NLP can raise the standard of communication and make customers feel better about the services offered.

The features that NLP allows for in a chatbot can be quite varied. AI-powered chatbots converse mostly through mechanical replies and a set of menus. NLP, with its deep learning capabilities, is capable of giving the end users more natural conversations. With chatbots, there are several numbers of false positive cases which NLP can minimize through better interpretation.

NLP enables chatbots to recognize failures made at the user end and respond to it so that there are no user induced glitches stopping an interaction. To take chatbots to higher levels of efficiency, a considerable amount of data training is required.

It isn't easy for a machine to comprehend what human beings convey, through commonly spoken and written languages. NLP gives computers the ability to engage in regular conversations to a reasonable extent by utilizing the concepts of context and meaning. When a user greets an NLP chatbot, it does not give a predetermined response greeting. Instead, it uses its ability to understand and processes the most appropriate response possible.

Without NLP, developers have to imagine and predict possible conversation scenarios between users and the chatbot in order to design it. In some cases, one can expect specific questions or responses, but it is impossible to prepare a chatbot with a perfect set of conversational inputs and responses. NLP enhances the scope for more comprehensive dialogues in chatbots.

The direct advantages of NLP in chatbots include removal of conversational barriers, improved user experience and reduced costs. NLP-based practices are, indeed, best ways to optimize chatbots.
