Conversational ChatBot with Enhanced Context

Szymon Fonau, CTO @ OctoShrew

Introduction

Conventional chatbots struggle to maintain conversation context and provide accurate responses. Storing a larger context than what the neural network accepts as input size typically requires vector databases. Those struggle from problems like a lack of global context (if a question cannot be answered by an independent paragraph, they typically fail). This resents a significant challenge which is at the time of writing this article yet unsolved and our innovation currently exceeds the state of the art as per the time of writing.

OctoShrew developed an advanced chatbot that surpasses traditional conversational capabilities. By leveraging smart tagging and a proprietary hierarchical search system, the chatbot adeptly retains and retrieves contextual information. This case study explores the solution's impact on accurate question-answering, overcoming limitations of standard vector databases.
