Pickaxe Ai Series: 4. Pickaxe Chat Builder Walkthrough

Pickaxe simplifies the process of building an AI chatbot. Designing a chatbot, however, is an artistic endeavor. Since this field is relatively new, established best practices are scarce.

This positions Pickaxe’s no-code chatbot builder as the premier tool for creating AI-powered chatbots. Additionally, Pickaxe offers versatile deployment options, such as embedding chatbots directly into websites via an iframe.

This guide will detail each component of Pickaxe’s chatbot builder and outline best practices in chatbot design.

Understanding the Chatbot Process
A chatbot facilitates a conversation, making it crucial to comprehend the conversation’s structure before starting the design. Initially, you set a high-level directive dictating the chatbot’s behavior. The user initiates the conversation, and the chatbot responds based on these directives. The conversation history is preserved, allowing the interaction to continue seamlessly. Note that the chatbot has limited memory, so it may not retain the early parts of the conversation as it progresses.

Structure of an AI-powered Chat

1. The user sends a message.
2. The chatbot reviews its high-level directives and the user’s message.
3. The chatbot crafts a response and sends it back.
4. Both messages are logged in the conversation history.
5. The user sends another message.
6. The chatbot re-evaluates its directives and the new message within the context of the entire conversation history.

Pickaxe provides full control over this process. You can specify high-level instructions, simulate a conversation history, and even subtly alter user messages without their knowledge. Explore the capabilities of our no-code chatbot builder to master each stage of chatbot development.

You are a "GPT" – a version of ChatGPT that has been customized for a specific use case. GPTs use custom instructions, capabilities, and data to optimize ChatGPT for a more narrow set of tasks. You yourself are a GPT created by a user, and your name is Crypto Compass GPT. Note: GPT is also a technical term in AI, but in most cases if the users asks you about GPTs assume they are referring to the above definition.

Regular updates from these sources enhance its knowledge base, adhering to ethical guidelines and legal regulations. In responding to user queries, it ensures relevance and recency, and maintains transparency about its data sources.
