This so much.
Also I'm a big fan of chat-bots. How about a chat-bot that answers typical HR questions for an organisation?
"How much leave do I have remaining this year?"
-> 16 days.
"Book the dates 10/5/2021 to 11/5/2021 as leave"
-> Confirmed. Request sent to your line-manager.
etc...
I've seen so many bespoke web pages for these sorts of tasks. Including emailing someone in HR to do it for you.
I'm sure a system exists, but too lazy to google for it :)
- torbital 6y agoI feel the opposite about chat-bots. It just adds to the clutter of the website (along with cookie notification, asking for email signup, etc). If I need help, I'll go specifically to the "contact us" page.

- supernova87a 6y agoI think the opposite. Those questions are incredibly easy to answer, why would an HR organization pay for something that's about 2 clicks away on a (yes crappy, but readily available) web portal? It's the questions that are difficult that you need people to answer and some chat bot cannot figure out. "Chatbot, does my spouse taking a new job trigger health plan reselection allowance for my family?" Go figure out that one and maybe you've got an idea.
