Rule Based ChatBots

Certainly! Rule-based chatbots are like virtual assistants that follow a script. They’re programmed with a series of if-then statements that guide their interactions. When you ask them something, they look through their script to find a matching condition and respond based on that. They’re great for handling common questions where the answers don’t change much, like store hours or service offerings.

For instance, if you ask a rule-based chatbot, “What time do you open?” it will search for a rule related to “time” and “open” and might respond with, “We’re open from 9 AM to 5 PM, Monday to Friday.” It’s a bit like having a conversation with a very methodical librarian who has an index card for every possible question.

These chatbots are quite straightforward to set up. You decide on the questions they can answer and write responses for each one. They don’t learn from interactions; instead, they stick to their script, which makes them reliable but not very flexible. If a customer asks something that’s not in the script, the chatbot will typically say it doesn’t understand or ask the user to rephrase the question

They’re often used on websites for customer service to quickly provide answers to frequently asked questions, making them a helpful tool for businesses that need to manage a lot of routine inquiries without human intervention. However, for more complex conversations or when a user’s questions go off-script, these chatbots might struggle to provide the right answers.
