1. Implementing Conversational AI with LivePerson: Definitive Reference for Developers and Engineers
2025 by Richard Johnson

LivePerson is one of the most popular services for adding a live chat on a website, which recently, of course, has provided the ability to create AI bots that communicate with visitors instead of an operator. So the book is about the possibilities of creating such bots - this may be interesting for developers that work with this platform or for creators of competing platforms. The book describes in detail how a chatbot works. For example, I was interested in the context switching mechanism - when a user changes the topic of conversation or returns to the previous topic. It turns out that the system keeps a tree (or trees) of dialogue topics and each new message is first analyzed to what context it belongs.

2. Conversational AI: Dialogue Systems, Conversational Agents, and Chatbots
2022 by Michael McTear

From this book, I found out that there are three main approaches to building dialogue systems: rule-based, data-driven and neural systems. Machine learning and statistical approaches are most popular in modern dialogue system development. Besides, evaluation metrics and frameworks play a crucial role in assessing dialogue system performance. There are also multimodal systems that combine voice and visual data. But we still need to remember about ethical considerations that are integral to Conversational AI development, especially in human-AI interactions.

Google's Dialogflow can be used to build cross-channel chatbots for web, social media and telephony while other Google Cloud tools like BigQuery and Chatbase are used for chatbot analytics and optimization. Dialogflow SDK and Google Cloud APIs can be used to build highly customizable voice platforms and chatbots that operate across different languages. But context management, intents and entities are critical in designing advanced conversational agents.
