A man chats with artificial intelligence from his smartphone and uses it to perform multiple tasks

You would be surprised to hear that we have plenty of artificial intelligence solutions that are clever enough to generate well-drawn characters of any sex. There are a lot of customization options that allow us to pick how he or she will look. It can be a girl of 20 with Caucasian features or a black guy of 30. You can experiment not only with facial features but also with character traits. Generations of such personalities can take from several seconds to several minutes. Don’t worry if you don’t know how to use those features because you can always use text prompts to explain to AI what you want to get.

After generating a character, you can start chatting with them immediately. You will be surprised at how well these characters can support a conversation, keeping in mind everything you say to them. The developers of various platforms added a feature that allows users to have a group chat with the same character and different users at once. So, for AI, it is easy to recognize all of you and keep these data flows apart.

Modern chatting with AI lets you not only exchange text messages but also receive photos upon request, voice messages, and voice calls.

There’s a big library of characters available on every AI service. Using hashtags, you can easily navigate through them to find the right match to have a conversation. As we can see, such chatting can help people who are lonely or in depression to feel more positive and loved.

At the same time, we have various chatbots that help different companies, from big to small, to support clients and provide site or app visitors with accurate and fast-delivered information about their services and features. You may experience this when we visit bank applications or sites like clinics, lawyers, and so on when every visitor is a potential lead.

Companies can work with default chatbots or customize their own solution. Typically, the price varies depending on how many chats the bot can support monthly and how many versions of the bot we are going to use. The companies claim that with AI, their financial parameters, such as revenue and marketing, customer satisfaction level, problem solved from the first contact, and new feature usage, increased significantly while their expenditure on these services reduced substantially.
