What sets an AI assistant apart from a simple chatbot?

The best assistants make themselves invisible.
Bill Gates

How It Works:
AI assistants combine NLP, context memory, and task orchestration, where chatbots follow scripted paths, and assistants learn user preferences and histories.

Key Benefits:

  • Context retention: Remembers past interactions.
  • Task chaining: Executes multi‑step workflows.
  • Personalization: Adapts tone and suggestions to users.

Real‑World Use Cases:

  • Personal schedulers: Manage meetings across time zones.
  • Email triage: Sort and summarize key messages.
