AI unmasked: How a chatbot is different from a voice bot




The main difference is in the linguistic complexity. 

People express themselves differently when they speak compared to when they type. When we speak we use more sentences and we make our sentences longer. 

As a result a voice bot needs to have better AI compared to a chatbot, in order to handle a conversation and deliver the same customer experience. 


If your business model allows it, is better to start with a chatbot and add a voice bot on top of it.

This way you can gradually increase the complexity of your AI without compromising on your customer experience.

How nmodes technology is unique



nmodes AI is based on semantic algorithms. They require significantly less computational capacity compared to standard machine learning algorithms used by a majority of conversational AI systems today.

As a result, the infrastructure requirements are drastically reduced. In simple terms, what Google Home or Amazon Alexa do with the help of supercomputers or advanced computer farms, nmodes AI can do on a basic server.

And it gives nmodes ability to delegate conversational capacity to the users.  With the help of nmodes AI every business (and individual) can create their own AI to handle the details of the business (products, customers, etc) not accessible from the outside.

Abundance of Information Often is a Liability

A massive change has occurred in the world during the last ten to twenty years. Until recently and throughout the history of mankind information was hard to access. Obtaining and sharing information was either a laborious process or impossible, and the underlying assumption was that information can never be enough.

Today, of course, we have the opposite picture. Not only information is easily available, it keeps pouring in from a growing number of sources, and we continuously find ourselves in situations when there is more information than we want or able to process.

A major task we, as species, are facing is therefore how to reduce or filter out relevant information. It is, to repeat, in direct opposition to the task we’ve been accustomed to during all previous centuries, which was how to obtain information.

Since this change took place only recently, within a lifetime of one generation, we didn’t have time to develop efficient set of procedures to address the new problem. But the work has started and will only accelerate with time.
