A bots success does not depend on
How ”smart” the bot is
How much natural language it uses
If you can interact using your voice
@TessFerrandez
A bots success does depend on
How well it solves your problem
If it’s available for your device
If you know how to interact with it

My bot has a personality disorder

Editor's Notes

  1. In an app or a website there are plenty of affordances on screen that tell you where you are and what you can do and how you can navigate between views Menus Buttons Breadcrumbs Textboxes
  2. In bots we dont have views, instead we have dialogs or conversation topics and navigation happens through conversation - When you are looking at the Sollentuna location, you might say scedule to move the conversation to the schedule topic
  3. Maximum 2-4 prompts Start with placeholder texts Ask the fewest number of questions possible
  4. We did a flow chart for every conversation flow. Reviewed with stakeholders, got feedback, refined. We then wrote out every conversation flow in Excel to show back/forth. Can use any tool you want, but want to show conversation, get feedback before coding…
