Data
Technical design
The virtual assistant uses artificial intelligence, also known as artificial intelligence (AI). AI helps Gem to better understand Gooise Meren residents and provide the right information. Specifically, Gem uses supervised machine learning, which calculates which answer from the answer library provides the best answer to the question based on the question. Once a question cannot be answered sufficiently well, the conversation is continued by an employee. At the end of the conversation, the user can indicate whether the answer helped. The next time a person asks a similar question, the answer that helped the most is more likely to be chosen.
