Reexploring SAcommunity Chatbot for Integration into Website Redevelopment Project

Submitted by Volunteer Yong ... on Tue, 02/04/2025 - 13:36

With AI technology moving so quickly, and Yong Kheng's team being fairly new to software development during their master’s project, there’s a lot of room to revisit and improve parts of the chatbot.

Volunteer Yong Kheng Beh, who originally built the chatbot’s backend, returned to Connecting Up on January 14, 2025, to work on refining and improving it. She’s bringing fresh insights from her internship at YourAnswer Pty Ltd (July to October 2024), along with a strong passion for learning and growth.

This blog post also doubles as a guide to how the code works and how to run it, making things easier for anyone who might pick it up in the future.
