Can AI-chatbots promote health-lifestyle changes?

Artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots are capable of mimicking human interactions with the help of oral, written, or verbal communication with the user. AI chatbots can provide important health-related information and services, ultimately leading to promising technology-facilitated interventions. Current digital telehealth and therapeutic interventions are associated with several challenges including unsustainability, low adherence, and inflexibility. AI chatbots are capable of overcoming these challenges and providing personalized on-demand support, higher interactivity, and higher sustainability. AI chatbots utilize data input from various sources, which is followed by data analysis that is completed through natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning (ML). Data output then helps users achieve their health behavior goals.
