628 results about "Chatbot" patented technology

A chatbot is a piece of software that conducts a conversation via auditory or textual methods. Such programs are often designed to convincingly simulate how a human would behave as a conversational partner, although as of 2019, they are far short of being able to pass the Turing test. Chatbots are typically used in dialog systems for various practical purposes including customer service or information acquisition. Some chatbots use sophisticated natural language processing systems, but many simpler ones scan for keywords within the input, then pull a reply with the most matching keywords, or the most similar wording pattern, from a database.

Multimodal chatbots based on characters

Techniques are disclosed for enabling creators to create multimodal chatbots that are based on or simulate / model characters. The characters may be from audiovisual (AV) media such as films and TV shows or real people. The application leverages a combination of Visual Interpretation AI, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA), and function calling to provide rich, interactive experiences. The inferencing performed by an instant multimodal chatbot utilizes base weights, character weights, relationship weights, experience weights as we as environmental inputs. An instant chatbot uses a number of AI models including a video to text model, an image to text model, a sensory to text model, a large language model, a text to video model, a text to image model and a text to voice model. A user can interact with the chatbot in a variety of ways including text, audio and video.

Unstructured data extraction with large language models for query resolution

An unstructured data query-response pair generation system (generation system) populates a knowledge base of query-response pairs for queries of natural language content in unstructured data by prompting a first large language model (LLM) text extracted from the unstructured data. An unstructured data chatbot (chatbot) leverages the knowledge base by augmenting prompts to a second LLM responding to user queries for natural language content in the unstructured data with query-response pairs having queries that are semantically similar to the user queries. The knowledge base and LLMs are updated based on user feedback correcting responses, continually improving quality of the generation system and chatbot.

Cybersecurity alert response chatbot via large language models and natural langauge alert descriptors

As cybersecurity alerts are detected and logged as formatted descriptors across an organization, a text converter converts the formatted descriptors into natural language descriptors by extracting and inserting metadata fields into natural language templates corresponding to user personas for the organization. In response to an alert-based query from a user, a persona classifier predicts a persona of the user from historical chat logs and retrieves natural language descriptors for alerts related to the user and predicted persona. A prompt generator receives the retrieved natural language descriptors and generates a prompt that instructs a large language model (LLM) to respond to the user with data from the natural language descriptors. Once prompted, the LLM establishes a conversation with the user via an interface for alert resolution.
