BoilerBot features flexible response generation, leveraging large language models (LLMs) to enable adaptable user experiences. We discuss our novel contributions towards advancing state-of-the-art task-oriented conversational agents, highlighting user-facing challenges and proposing fault-tolerant, iterative solutions for carefully guided workflows that enable Alexa users to maximize BoilerBot’s functionality.","url_abs":"https://www.amazon.science/alexa-prize/proceedings/boilerbot-a-reliable-task-oriented-chatbot-enhanced-with-large-language-models","url_pdf":"https://assets.amazon.science/8c/03/80c814a749f58e73a1aeda2ff282/boilerbot-tb2-final-2023.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"boilerbot-a-reliable-task-oriented-chatbot","repo_url":"https://github.com/jinensetpal/boilerbot","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"chatbot","task_name":"Chatbot"},{"task_slug":"response-generation","task_name":"Response Generation"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
