Chatbot projects aim for full natural language understanding but claim that perfect conversational AI is unrealistic today, so teams build hybrid flows combining free text with interactive blocks; practical tools shown include Chatfuel, Amazon Lex, IBM Watson and KeyReply and a platform example runs Hi Bot >1M users/month. Specific advice: be honest about bot identity, design to solve a concrete task (pizza-order tracking worked; fake-human shop bots fail), hire psychologists for language nuance, and prioritize measurable task completion over clever conversation.
