Introduced today by the Sunnyvale    company, Acobot (<a href=\"http:\/\/acobot.com\" rel=\"nofollow\">http:\/\/acobot.com<\/a>)    employs advanced AI chat technology to engage website visitors    in help chats -- and businesses of all sizes can quickly and    easily install Acobot on their sites for free.  <\/p>\n<p>    If \"artificial intelligence\" brings to mind Hollywood-style    sentient robots bent on destroying humans, it's time to step    away from the big screen and instead take a look at Acobot. The    robot eliminates the need for in-person live chat support by    intuitively answering prospective customers' questions. Acobot    learns as it goes, providing better service with each new    visit.  <\/p>\n<p>    Designed by AI researchers, Acobot was created to help website    owners answer their visitors' questions 24\/7 and, in turn,    achieve better sales. The robot takes about three minutes to    get up and running; comparable products can take days or even    weeks to set up and can cost upwards of $10,000 monthly.  <\/p>\n<p>    So why make Acobot services freely available? Acobot LLC is, at    heart, a company of inventors who are much more interested in    finding new ways to solve problems with technology than they    are in becoming the next billion-dollar company.  <\/p>\n<p>    \"Acobot gives instant answers with a human touch,\" stated the    founder and CEO, Vic Duan. \"Our goal is to give accurate and    instant answers to whatever questions our users' site visitors    might have. Through AI, Acobot can answer expected and    unexpected questions accurately and sometimes even in    entertaining ways.\"  <\/p>\n<p>    For example, ask Acobot to tell a joke, and the results are    unpredictable but invariably humorous. Turn around and ask how    the robot works, and Acobot will readily explain. Each answer,    regardless of the complexity of the question, is given in less    than a second, keeping site visitors engaged and interested in    the company for which Acobot is \"working.\"  <\/p>\n<p>    \"People enjoy interacting with Acobot,\" Duan explained. \"They    stay on your site longer and end up obtaining more information    about your business than they would from a static web page or    even a human chat attendant. We're excited to put Acobot to    work for businesses everywhere.\"  <\/p>\n<p>    Acobot is available now for free and can be added to any    website.
