- People expect chatbots to make mistakes and apologize for them.
- Focus on creating a conversational flow with natural language processing (NLP).

- Use synonyms and noise to improve NLP accuracy.
- Create a validation process to ensure the bot’s responses are accurate.
- Don’t over apologize; be transparent and clear in your responses.
- Focus on practical applications, such as customer service and sales, rather than just creating a chatbot for the sake of it.
- Understand that chatbots are not perfect and can make mistakes, but they can still be useful.
- Use personas and scenarios to test the chatbot’s performance.
- Don’t over-engineer the bot; focus on simple, clear language and responses.
- Validate the bot’s responses to ensure they are accurate and relevant.
- Don’t compare the chatbot’s performance to humans; focus on its own limitations and strengths.
