There is much discussion on AI (Artificial Intelligence) and its future in any industry.

People like Elon Musk argue about whether AI is our best friend or the biggest threat to humankind, while people like Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg believe that AI will be beneficial.

One thing’s for sure: artificial intelligence quickly invades all areas of our lives, and if you don’t want to lag behind, you need to learn more about this technology.

Did you know that almost 80% of people are already using AI but don’t know about it?

Anyway, WordPress is also always trying to catch up with the latest trends, so there’s no surprise that this platform offers various plugins that use artificial intelligence.

According to statistics, most customers think that a business should be available 24/7.

Big organizations can solve this problem by hiring more employees who work in several shifts, thus answering questions from customers all day and all night long.

For smaller companies, the costs associated with such a big team may be a problem.

Fortunately, there is a WordPress live chat plugin, called WP Live Chat Support, that can help.

It’s basically a great chatbot designed for WordPress, which constantly learns and improves its knowledge base to find answers to any questions.

Another thing which makes it a good solution is that it doesn’t reply with pre-written/standard sentences, but learns from actual conversations!
