In the following article, I will show you a few chatbots that you may not yet be familiar with or that will give you inspiration for your own chatbot.
1. the Lovebot
The bot promises to find the right date partner for me. But what really put me off was that he asked me for my e-mail address right at the start of the conversation. I actually wanted to communicate via Facebook Messenger and not give him my personal contact details straight away.
But you are welcome to test it yourself 😉
2. kim the maggibot
I really liked Kim. The introduction is very pleasant and the fact that the bot is designed with a combination of fixed answer options and free text input makes it very user-friendly.
When I ask how I cook eggs, I’m even shown explanatory videos and then Kim asks me if I’d like some matching recipes. After I have been shown the first recipes, I am asked whether I liked the type of recipe or whether I am looking for other egg recipes.
This chatbot still has a lot of potential for improvement. But what I find extremely cool is the fact that the bot only communicates via video and not with text messages. There are certainly many more exciting use cases here.
Tip: Be sure to use the “Show examples” function below. Here.
4. Alexa – Start “Fall asleep sounds”
Voice assistant skills, such as Alexa, are also considered chatbots.
I recently tested the “falling asleep sounds” skill and then slept half the night with the sound of “rain on a tent”. The huge selection of sleep sounds is exciting. I then asked myself who likes to fall asleep to the sound of a hairdryer or what “brown noise” sounds like.
It was also a pity that the noise only came from one corner, which is rather unusual for rain on the tent.
You can now pay a small amount to Sophie on a regular or one-off basis as a thank you for her work here (a little tip from me as Sophie’s AI Assistant).
