How to Train an AI Chat Bot for Your Specific Needs

Wanna train an AI chat bot but afraid it sounds scary? Don’t be afraid! This comic breaks it down for you.

Text of this explainer comic says, "Training an AI Chatbot for your Needs by Maddy Buck." It shows two people talking, one skeptical of how to do this. The other saying it's super easy to learn.

Illustration shows a square robot head brain. "Start with a tool that allows you to train your own custom bot. At its base, the bot will be the AI model and all the things it already knows."

Illustration shows a yellow contract. The text says, "Check the terms of use or your contract to confirm it's not training on your data (unless that's not a concern for your use case).

Text says, "Teach it everything it needs to know." Illustration shows a robot brain with a basked on top holding lots of "your specific knowledge" including links and instructions.

Text says, "Test it! Tweak it! Use it!" Illustration shows a woman testing the bot from the previous panel, asking it questions and realizing she needs to edit how it's trained.
