AI chatbot struggles

[MeesvP]

Hi Hubspot-users,

I am trying to create an AI-chatbot with the help of the new beta tool. I am refering to this information page. The goal of the chatbot is helping customers with questions, and sometimes refering them to an employee (when their account is blocked for example). I am using knowledge-base articles to feed content to the AI-bot. The answers the AI-bot is giving varies from really poor to fine (but mostly poor). I dont see much options to train the chatbot expect for making more knowledge articles. What is the best way to train the chatbot? My company currently only uses the knowledge base to feed the AI-chatbot and nothing else.  Could there be some problems with using Dutch?

Hey @MeesvP, thank you for posting in our Community!

Creating an effective AI-chatbot requires high-quality training data and proper configuration. To our top experts, @matthew-aire, and @RSchweighart do you have any recommendations for @MeesvP matter?

Thank you,

Pam

Hi @PamCotton , thank you for replying!
I am very interested in the suggestions of the experts!

To give another example:
When I ask the AI-bot: ''How do I stop my subcription?'', it gives a correct answer. However, when I ask the AI-bot the same question in another session it just replies with ''I dont know'', which is no useful information for customers. It would be nice to receive some tips.

@matthew-aire, and @RSchweighart, would you have any suggestions? 🙂

Hi @MeesvP,

It appears the only way to train the chatbot is via knowledge base articles and public URLs. It doesn't seem like there's a way to force some instructions, at this time. Since it's in beta and still early in the development process, hopefully the capability to control some of the responses will be developed.

I notice this blurb at the bottom of the product update article which makes it seem like English might work the best.

Apologies for the delayed response.

All the Best,
