Oracle's E-Business Suite & PeopleSoft (PSFT) has been the backbone of many enterprises for decades, and, if it's working, you don't have to replace it to leverage the latest innovations. We discuss and demonstrate how Oracle Digital Assistant can modernize any EBS & PSFT deployment with automation and conversational AI/chatbot experiences. This is especially useful for users on the go who can use text or voice to log time cards, file expenses, manage requisitions, submit approvals, and more.

While using natural language processing within a chatbot allows for more natural interaction with an end user, it can sometimes be difficult to fully replicate the ability of a live agent to both visualize the real-world object being discussed as well as respond to the user's reactions during the discussion. We investigate how integrating various Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) AI services can help drive the nature of the conversation. Experiment with enhancing Oracle Digital Assistant so the chatbot can recognize physical objects being discussed and react to user sentiment in conversation.

While successfully implementing an enterprise chatbot has traditionally required the skills of both professional developers and natural language practitioners, this is no longer the case. The evolution of both AI-generated
conversation and visual design tools means the ability to build out sophisticated chatbots is now easily within reach of both knowledge workers and citizen developers. We introduce the latest visual development paradigm and show how you can quickly (and easily) build out a chatbot without relying on the experts in the IT department.
