OBJECTIVE SENSITIVITY

What is Sensitivity?

In Agent AI Chat Bot, sensitivity is a setting that determines how strict the bot is in interpreting user input. It's particularly relevant when collecting information using the "gather info" objective.


How Does Sensitivity Work?

  • Sensitivity Scale: The sensitivity level is measured on a scale from 1 to 99.

  • Lower Sensitivity: A lower sensitivity (e.g., 1) means the bot is more lenient. It will accept a wider range of responses, even if they don't perfectly match the expected input.

  • Higher Sensitivity: A higher sensitivity (e.g., 99) means the bot is more strict. It will only accept responses that closely match the expected input.

Why Use Sensitivity?

  • Fine-Tune Accuracy: Adjust the sensitivity to ensure that your bot collects the correct information.

  • Prevent Misunderstandings: A higher sensitivity can help prevent misunderstandings by requiring more specific responses.

  • Balance User Experience: A lower sensitivity can make the conversation more natural and less frustrating for users.

Best Practices for Setting Sensitivity:

  • Start with the Default: The default sensitivity is usually 50%.

  • Adjust Gradually: If you find that the bot is too lenient or too strict, adjust the sensitivity in small increments (e.g., 10-15%).

  • Test and Iterate: Experiment with different sensitivity levels to find the optimal setting for your specific use case.


By understanding and effectively using the sensitivity setting, you can create a more accurate and user-friendly Agent AI Chat Bot.
