Abstract: A chatbot system for an interactive platform. The chatbot system receives a prompt from a user and determines an intent of the user using the prompt. If the chatbot system can't determine an intent, the chatbot communicates the prompt as a personality prompt to a generative AI model. If the chatbot system can determine an intent from the prompt, the chatbot system generates an API call to an additional service using the intent. The chatbot system uses values returned by the additional service to generate a hint prompt that is communicated to the generative AI model. The chatbot system receives a response from the generative AI model to the personality prompt or hint prompt and communicates the response to the user.

Abstract: A check valve arrangement utilizes a disc (15) for a valve member while eliminating the need for a ball. A valve seat in the common sense is unnecessary, too. Instead, a substantially flat surface (13) interacts with the disc (15). In order to allow unidirectional flow only, the disc (15) is biased toward the surface (13) by means of an elastic bias ring (17) which itself is held in place by a retainer (6) extending through the center hole (16) of the disc (15) and thereby axially guiding the disc (15). If desired, the flat surface (13) can be supplemented with an embedded sealing ring 18 to provide optimum sealing properties without precise machining of the surface (13). By designing the disc (15) and the retainer (6) in rotational symmetry, a directional adjustment of the parts is made unnecessary.
