2. Create a Social Intents account
If you don't already have an account with Social Intents, simply register for a Free Trial.
Once you sign up you can pick an integration with Teams, Slack or a standalone account. The integrations will be used to invite in Live Chat agents when you want to escalate a website chat from the chatbot to live chat agents. You can answer chats in Microsoft Teams, Slack, Zoom, or Webex. Otherwise, you can answer the chats directly in our web-based dashboard.
After creating your Social Intents account and adding a live chat widget, we'll generate a code snippet for you. You can copy and paste this code snippet into your website in order to enable your chatbot on your own site.
3. Add your OpenAI API Key to Social Intents
Now that you have create a Live Chat app, go to the Chat Settings in Social Intents by clicking on My Apps, then Edit Settings of your chat widget. Click on the Chatbot Settings tab.
In your Chatbot Settings name your bot, choose an avatar for the chat bot and select Chatbot Type of 'ChatGPT with OpenAI'.
You can then decide how you want your chatbot to be invited into the chat. You can have a chatbot only, then invite agents later, have it pick up only when your live chat agents are offline or miss a chat, or join the same time your agents join.
For ChatGPT Model, you can choose any of the models the OpenAI supports with the Chat API: https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/chat
We choose the current chat model: gpt-3.5-turbo.
Copy your OpenAI API Key into the field called: ChatGPT API Key.
Next you can customize your ChatGPT Welcome text with a Default Welcome Response, and Quick Reply buttons to help direct your users.
The Human Escalation trigger phrases can be used to match on user intent when they want to reach to a live agent. When one of these phrases is matched, we invite your human agents by sending Live Chat Invites to Microsoft Teams, Slack, Zoom, or Webex.
Once your agents answer the chats, then the bot drops out of the conversation.
4. Train your ChatGPT Chatbot with your Website Content
There are 2 parts to training your ChatGPT chatbot. The first is to use the Instruction Phrases to allow to you send an initial System message when starting a chat to give your ChatGPT bot some context.
Generally you can use this to convey tone, types of answers, where to point visitors, etc. Make sure to point to your website URL in the instruction phrases to help guide ChatGPT in the types of answers it provides.
For instance, we use this phrase in our demo chatbot:
You are a friendly chatbot for the Social Intents with website at https://www.socialintents.com. Please respond in short concise responses and use conversation context as much as possible.
Next train ChatGPT with your own content
Simply click on the 'Train your chatbot' button in the chatbot settings and you'll be taken to a page where you can list URL's you can use to train the bot.
Enter a base domain or individual urls to add as content to train. Then click 'Train All' to train your ChatGPT chatbot on your own content. We use OpenAI Embeddings for training purposes and store in a vector database for easy access from the ChatGPT chatbot.
You can now train ChatGPT on website URLs, blog posts, or upload files such as Word Docs, Excel Files, PDF's, or text files for training.
Now your chatbot will answer questions specific to the content you've provided it!
