Chatbots take their cue from a user’s desired intent expressed through chat and execute the required business tasks in order to fulfill their need. But both technologies rely on automating underlying tasks or business processes. The former engages purely through a conversational interface whereas the latter can scrape information from user interfaces that are not conversational. While natural language processing (NLP) plays a role for both technologies, chatbots interpret conversations, from voice or text channels, while RPA bots extract language and data from documents, files, forms, browsers etc. So a chatbot understands and simulates human conversation while a RPA robot emulates the actions of a human. It goes beyond just the conversation to orchestrate and automate underlying processes and tasks needed to execute on the customer’s need. Conversational AI represents one of the most significant shifts towards using natural language to do things like transact, book things, search items, interact, and access services, without the need for human intervention. It allows users (customers or employees) to express intent, via voice or messaging, whereby the bots then execute on that intent and automate the required tasks to fulfill the customer need.
Only substantially better: an RPA software robot never sleeps, makes zero mistakes and costs a lot less than an employee.”Īt ServisBOT we define Conversational AI as follows:Ĭonversational AI is a form of artificial intelligence that understands and simulates human conversation through the use of bots powered by natural language processing (NLP). They interpret, trigger responses and communicate with other systems in order to perform on a vast variety of repetitive tasks. RPA robots utilize the user interface to capture data and manipulate applications just like humans do. “ Robotic Process Automation is the technology that allows anyone today to configure computer software, or a “robot” to emulate and integrate the actions of a human interacting within digital systems to execute a business process. But let me summarize quickly before I go on to explain where and why I think Conversational AI and RPA can work together. In a previous blog, I highlighted RPA versus Chatbots. Conversational AI and RPA: Differences and Similarities And while the focus of chatbots is on digital engagement and RPA’s value proposition is on automation there are many ways in which the two technologies can work together in game-changing ways. RPA and chatbot technologies are being adopted at accelerated rates by a variety of industries and for a wide range of bot use cases.
Another hot and vibrant market! In the past year alone, three large RPA players raised almost $700 million: Automation Anywhere added an additional $300 million in funding, Blue Prism issued stock to create $130 million in fresh funding, and UIPath raised a further $265 million (with rumors circulating now that a $400m Series D round could mean a valuation of $7bn for UiPath) Many of these are recent entrants to an emerging and growing market based on digital engagement, enabled by conversational interfaces and AI.Īnd then there are the RPA players, some of whom have taken a natural next step from process automation, adding AI technologies to pivot towards RPA. Hardly a week goes by when there isn’t a funding announcement by a conversational AI (or chatbot) startup company.
AI Fuels Red-hot Growth and Innovation in Intelligent Engagement & Automation This blog explores some example use cases where the two technologies can overlap to marry intelligent conversational engagement with intelligent business automation, powered by AI rather than humans, and breaking down org silos that hamper convenience, efficiency, and customer experience. How and where do we see Conversational AI and Robotic Process Automation come together?
