Although powerful large language models (LLMs) like GPT can power a chatbot with abilities to interpret and generate response to user input, they do not really teach the chatbot how to carry out an effective and pleasant dialog with a user. Additionally, AI is far from perfect and there are always cases where AI cannot handle or handles wrong. Hence the role of a conversational AI designer is critical as they put their wisdom and creativity into an AI chatbot and ensure effective dialogs between AI and its users.

Almost all of them claim that they are powered by generative AI and all seem to offer similar features, giving the first impression that any of them would do the job.

In my previous blog, I talked about what it takes to build a chatbot using GPT-4, including the engineering efforts required and a rough cost and time estimate. Although it is non-trivial to build a practical chatbot solution for real-world applications, with the right tools, one can build a custom chatbot solution quickly to take full advantage of the state-of-the-art large language models (LLMs) like GPT-4.
With the popularity of ChatGPT and more recently AutoGPT, more and more organizations (or individuals) are considering the adoption of a chatbot for their website or proprietary applications (e.g., a learning program website or a mobile healthcare application).
