Still, I'd want to see it in action before I pay for it.
The Bing bot will not have all the information available or be precise as an AI programmed with certain information. Chatgpt, i played with and it gives very surface level information on Hive. And then theres the fact its not built into the platform the potential new user is asking about. Something that would add to ease of use and instant availability of information.
I dont think the cost would be high since there are options out there that have the framework set up for a bot of this type using chatgpt 4. We would just need to feed it information and slap it on the frontends and hive.io. And as you said, we already wrote the content ourselves.
I've been asking it many of your questions (I have no life?).
For this example, Bing already knows I'm talking about Hive and I asked:
It provided a link in the answer to this post:
https://hive.blog/hive-148441/@leoumesh/the-importance-of-voting-for-witness
Two things have come to mind. I'm not really satisfied with that answer. Could probably find a better answer.
And because we have so many different options, I think straight forward questions with straightforward answers could be FAQ format positioned directly on frontends for easy access. I think Peakd has one. Easier to update; easier to manage. Bot could pull info from that as well of course, or point in that direction.
Bing is a huge button on the browser, if you use Edge. Accessible no matter what you're doing online. Browser features are often overlooked. I've seen people complain we can't bookmark posts for later for instance, and they don't even think of using the browser for that. I've seen people complain we can't bookmark posts, yet we can, on Peakd.
So which frontend has the chatbot? I'm thinking that won't work but maybe Keychain could come with this chatbot? The new user needs to be exposed to this bot straight out of the gates, correct? Plus keychain is always there, in a sense, though not everyone uses it.
*pardon my edits
Sometimes good placement encourages questions and generates interest. The accessibility is a huge factor in grabbing instant attention.
A bing chatbot to a onsite bot, in todays age, might be the equivalent of having a book at home and having to walk to the library.
Maybe. But again, Keychain is an additional step in itself. The goal should be to lessen the number of steps taken.
Instead it can be added like a widget to wordpress sites right to the websites to be there the instant a new potential user sees anything. It would have a welcome message:
"Youve arrived. Ask me a question to learn more about Hive."
I can get behind that. Especially if it's available on every Hive-based site imaginable. Everything. Yes. And that comes with the bonus of connecting Hive products and the benefits of said connections; something that ties in to what we were talking about recently under a previous post.
It's too bad devs don't come along and brainstorm. Hopefully this goes somewhere. It's a good idea.
I did ping @peakd on Twitter. They should see this.
Suppose it would be community trained as well, provided it comes with an upvote/downvote system. Like I said I wasn't satisfied with that answer in the example, and I know there are better ones. A few searches on Bing also led me to some outdated opinionated misinformation and disinformation but I was intentionally setting it up to yield those results as I was experimenting. I'll just say it's a good thing we have a comment section that can't be cleansed or manipulated by the authors.
This immutable database stuff we got going on here will prove its value when combined with this new tech, becoming crucial infrastructure at some point I'm thinking.
There is a usecase hidden in there somewhere.
