Could chatbots not catch on?

As I stated earlier, bots aren't new. What's new is the progress in'technology' that's coming along with it – the boom in messaging apps or the improvements in AI and NLP.Now, you just need to download the bot and start using it – no questions asked. The mental cognitive load of learning is gone. Add to it the saturation of the app economy (Now its far too difficult to establish a business by developing an app), and look at the big picture: Chatbots are here.
