Overview
Chatbots (also called chatterbots or conversational agents) are software applications that use artificial intelligence (AI) to interact and communicate with users via text, voice, or text-to-speech. Chatbots enable businesses to provide an automated service for customers, employees, and site visitors at a minimum cost.
This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at developers who wish to install, set up, and manage chatbot-building platforms and code-based frameworks to create and deploy chatbot services.
By the end of this training, participants will be able to design, build, evaluate, and test chatbot services to provide automated chat or voice support interfaces for their users.
