- Retrieval augmented generation chatbot prototype built with CeADAR's EDIH for AI programme
What the AI did
A prototype chatbot answers questions about branch hours, account requirements and policies from the credit union's own documents. It hands over to a live agent with the full conversation when it can't help.
The result
Staff testing found the chatbot could answer about 90% of general enquiries.
Check before trusting
This was staff testing a prototype, not live members, and it isn't in production yet.
