Hello ,
 
What do NBC, Whole Foods and Airbnb have in common? All are have "pretty cool" real-life chatbots according to an article at Medium titled Your New Best Friend: Basics of the Chatbot. Consider the following:
  • The global chatbot market is expected to reach USD 1.25 billion by 2025, growing at a CAGR of 24.3%, according to Grand View Research, Inc. — with significant traction projected in healthcare.
  • A recent MobihealthNews article highlights Grace, a chatbot tested by Providence St Joseph. The author states, "the possibilities for Grace are tantalizing."
  • A just-published study in the Journal of Internet Research compared information given by the chatbot with that given by a multidisciplinary group of physicians to patients with breast cancer. Scores from the chatbot were found to be non-inferior to the scores of the physicians. Artificial conversational agents may save patients with minor health concerns from a visit to the doctor, researchers said, adding that "this could allow clinicians to spend more time to treat patients who need consultations the most."

Want to know more about chatbots, voice applications and conversational AI, especially related to next-generation digital marketing and conversational SEO in healthcare? Take time tomorrow to join us for this complimentary webinar.
