I use Alexa on a daily-basis - which can be seen as a chatbot. It provides plenty of useful functionality, especially Alexa-auto which I bought my wife for Christmas. She loves the ability to add items to her todo list whilst driving, asking it questions about the weather, playing music, performing communcation tasks, etc.

> I use Alexa on a daily-basis - which can be seen as a chatbot. More general virtual assistants (Alexa, Google Assistant, Siri) are at a completely different power level from most chatbots. Most chatbots use cases that I come across are some company thinking that they can replace human support with a language model trained on their custom knowledge base. They expect something as good as Alexa but which also has knowledge about the company's product and the results are always disappointing.
