Identifying Alternative Options for Chatbots With Multi-Criteria Decision-Making

Abstract

Artificial intelligence-powered chatbot usage continues to grow worldwide, and there is ongoing research to identify features that maximize the utility of chatbots. This study uses the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method to find the best available alternative chatbot for task completion. We identify chatbot evaluation criteria from literature followed by inputs from experts using the Delphi method. We apply CRITIC to evaluate the relative importance of the specified criteria. Finally, we list popular alternatives of chatbots and features offered and apply WASPAS and EDAS techniques to rank the available alternatives. The alternatives explored in this study include YOU, ChatGPT, PerplexityAI, ChatSonic, and CharacterAI. Both methods yield identical results in ranking, with ChatGPT emerging as the most preferred alternative based on the criteria identified.
