This is an interview with Ronald Ashri, Co-Founder of OpenDialog. We discuss the evolving landscape of conversational AI. Ron shares how OpenDialog has progressed since our last conversation in 2021, highlighting the transformative impact of large language models and generative AI on the enterprise automation space.


We dive into the nuances of defining "AI agents", calling out the hype and misuse of the term and putting a few of the well-known tech companies on the chopping block! We chat about how OpenDialog leverages AI agent-based abstractions and goal-driven architectures to build more reliable and effective conversational systems, striking a balance between the flexibility of language models and the constraints of business processes.


The conversation also explores the future of conversational interfaces, touching on the potential to blend language AI, dynamic user interfaces, and orchestrated experiences to create seamless, multi-modal interactions. It’s a thought-provoking perspective on the current state of the industry and the practical steps organisations can take to harness the power of generative AI in business.
