Bots
A bot is a software application that runs automated tasks
(scripts) over the internet. Typically, bot perform tasks that are
both simple and structurally repetitive, at a much higher rate
than would be possible a human.
“ ”
A chatbot is designed to work on conversation with
people and existing chat app or social network
Usually AI is embedded in a chatbot so the chatbot
can understand the context and perform much more
complicated tasks than what a bot does.
Why is this huge?
one chat app = all services needed
shift to conversational UI
Chatbot builders
telegram chat fuel Prompt
Along with developing new
conversation base service,
many existing app/service
developers try to apply
conversational UI.
Several CDKs (Chat
Development Kit) are offered
to build a bot aligned with
existing services.
Summary
Big shift from app to chat, Facebook took this path
Chat app may become the primary access of users and center of services
Chatbot will play a main role as a primary touch point of users to services
Developers will be required to to cope with conversational UI
The challenge is to bypass incumbent vertically integrated players (Apple and Google)
The key to success is to offer a better UX than existing mobile services
