March 21: Build a ‘no code’ chatbot in under 5 minutes

Join the NLP-CoP’s Sandbox Working Group on Thursday, March 21st at 11:00am ET to learn how to build a simple chatbot that draws from customized datasets.

Examples of these kinds of chatbots include: “MERL Tech-Nician” on OpenAI and MERL Tech Assistant on Hugging Face. Another example is the ICT Works Answer Bot.

At this webinar, Sarah Osman and Zach Tilton will walk you through how to create custom chatbots and how these tools can streamline and enhance monitoring, evaluation, research, and learning (MERL) activities.

This session will include a hands-on demonstration where you’ll learn to build simple chatbots using OpenAI’s GPT and Hugging Face Assistants. The session will focus on entry-level, no-code solutions.

Attendees will gain insights into leveraging chatbot technology for data collection, stakeholder engagement, knowledge management, and more. There will be ample time for participants to share their own experiences, tips, ideas, and concerns.

Whether you’re new to chatbots or looking to expand your toolkit, this session offers valuable knowledge for applying AI in the MERL Tech sector.
