  • Publication number: 20240249318
    Abstract: A system and method for determining user intent and providing targeted advertising using chatbot interactions is disclosed. The system receives user prompts during chat sessions with a chatbot and generates responses using a large language model. User intent is extracted by analyzing the chat conversations using natural language processing and machine learning techniques. The extracted user intent, comprising weighted keywords and concepts, is used to create a user intent profile. Targeted advertising content is generated based on the user intent profile and provided to the user during subsequent platform interactions. The large language model is continuously retrained using user engagement data to improve intent modeling accuracy. User privacy is maintained by limiting context extraction to chatbot conversations. The system enables personalized and relevant advertising by inferring user intent through conversational interactions.
