Conversational AI and Psychology: Personalised Automated Brand Interactions

Remember when you had to visit a bank personally to make money transfers or find out about your bank balance? Fortunately, internet banking and mobile banking apps came into existence and dispensed the requirement of visiting a branch for basic banking transactions. Banking has evolved further with conversational AI (chatbots powered by artificial intelligence technology), making it possible for each banking customer to have their own financial assistant. For instance, one of the early adopters of this technology, Bank of America, has deployed Erica, an AI-powered chatbot that helps customers carry out day-to-day banking operations. You can ask Erica for your bank balance information, pay bills, transfer money and even seek personalized budgeting suggestions based on your spending. Great, isn’t it?

How are Chatbots Boosting Patient-Doctor Communication?

Isn’t it amazing that modern chatbots can make your life so much easier and improve your health status? Chatbots are a special type of software built with machine learning (ML) algorithms such as natural language processing (NLP) to help patients establish a faster connection with the right doctor. According to patients’ input, e.g. described symptoms, chatbots can successfully provide instant assistants or alleviate their chronic health conditions by sending alerts about daily pills intake.  From my experience working in a bespoke software development company, I learned the value of innovative technological solutions that change the way we communicate in the digital era. Especially during the Codvid-19 pandemic telehealth is not a far-fetched dream anymore.
