In the AI world, we can interact with machines the same way we talk or converse in real-
            time  with  other  humans.  This  has  become  possible  with  the  help  of computer  programs
            known as chatbots. Let us now understand what a chatbot is.

            Chatbot


            A chatbot, also known as a bot, is a computer program that allows humans to interact with
            computing devices through voice, text, gesture, and touch.
            The chatbot works like your virtual assistant, answering your questions based on your inputs

            and performing the given tasks. For example, you can use the chatbot of a pizza company
            to order a pizza for you.





                The first-ever chatbot was developed by Joseph Weizenbaum, a German American computer
                scientist at MIT's artificial intelligence lab between 1964 and 1966.

            about some AI chatbots that can talk like humans. These AI chatbots have won the famous
            Loebner award.
