text bot

Digital conversation partner

A text bot is software that communicates through written messages, simulating conversation with users.

Text bots range from simple automated responders to sophisticated AI systems capable of nuanced dialogue.

They handle customer service inquiries, answer questions, or just chat: I couldn't tell if I was talking to a person or a text bot.

Also called chatbot.
