12. what’s the bot or chatbot?
A bot is a software application that runs automated
tasks(scripts) over the internet. Typically, bots perform tasks
that are both simple and structurally repetitive, at a much
higher rate than would be possible for a human.
-wikipedia
• a chatbot is designed to work on
conversation with people and existing
on chat app or social network.
• usually AI(NLP) is embedded in a chat
bot so the chatbot can understand the
context and perform much more
complicated tasks than what a bot does.microsoft’s chatbot, Tay

old but new type of input method/user interface is
thriving due to evolution of AI/NLP technology and
plenty of data set of text in the internet
21. Conversational Commerce
in the previous slide, you see that it was like the customer
was talking to real agent. but all reply was made by AI
from Magic(chat base commerce assistance service).
conversational commerce(or conversation as the
interface) will bring…
• more convenience: perform complex tasks and hassle
free operation
• personalization: the more interaction, the more
understanding
• support decision making: data driven recommendation
23. make it “chat-able” -chatbot builders-

not only developing new conversation
base service, many existing app/service
developers try to apply conversational UI.
now there’re many developers which
provide CDK(chat development kit) to
build a bot aligned with existing services.

25. Summary
• Big shift from app to chat is foreseeing by the fact that Facebook
would take that path (wait and see at the incoming f8)
• if that shift will happen, chat app is the primary access of users and
the center of services.
• and also, Chatbot will play a main role as a primary touch point of
users to services
• developers are required to cope with conversational UI. already found
the sign of this transition in commerce as conversational commerce
and in other verticals.
• the biggest disruption of the movement is to bypass incumbent
vertically integrated player such as Apple and Google.
• but key to success is underlying developers who could offer better UX
than current services on mobile.
