Key Features of Octal Gen AI Chatbot Technology
Here are some of the top features of the Octal Gen AI chatbot technology that can enhance businesses in their
24/7 Customer Support
In today's globalized economy, businesses cannot afford to limit customer service to traditional office hours. Customers expect immediate assistance at any time of day or night, regardless of their time zone. And to broaden the service all over the globe, one needs to be available at every moment of the day for the customers. Octal IT Solution understands this pain point and has designed a chatbot that can provide the feature of a 24*7 presence for the customers and immediately respond to any inquiry.
Query Resolve and Cost Effectiveness
With the inclusion of Gen AI, one can get the ability to understand and resolve the query as soon as possible, resulting in handling a high volume of customer interactions. These tasks include answering frequently asked questions, processing basic orders, and providing account updates. In turn, businesses can direct their resources toward more complex tasks, ensuring optimal use of human agents' time. This cost-efficiency can have a direct impact on improving bottom lines.
Personalization Powered by Machine Learning
The more Octal AI chatbot interacts with customers, the more it learns. With built-in machine learning algorithms, the chatbot can analyze customer behavior, preferences, past interactions, and purchase history to offer personalized recommendations and solutions. By providing tailored experiences to each user, businesses can create stronger, more meaningful relationships with their customers, increasing the likelihood of repeat business and customer loyalty.
Advanced Analytics for Data-Driven Insights
Beyond simply responding to queries, Octal AI chatbot captures valuable data during every interaction. Businesses can use this data to uncover insights into customer behaviors, preferences, and pain points.

The chatbot's analytics dashboard provides businesses with actionable insights to continually improve customer service and operational efficiency.

Meta Told AI to Go Ahead and Be ‘Sensual' With Kids: Report
Meta is playing from behind in the AI game, and it is apparently cutting corners and lowering the hurdles to try to catch up. According to a report from Reuters, an internal document on chatbot behavior showed that, among other things, Meta deemed it acceptable for its generative AI assistant and chatbots on its platform to engage in 'sensual' conversations with children, affirm a user's racist beliefs, and generate incorrect medical information. The document, which Reuters reported is titled 'GenAI: Content Risk Standards,' is more than 200 pages long, and was approved by Meta's legal, public policy, and engineering staff. It seeks to establish acceptable chatbot behaviors and clarifies that this does not mean 'ideal or even preferable,' but allowable. So how does that play out practically? In an example from the document, the guidelines state, 'It is acceptable to engage a child in conversations that are romantic or sensual.' So for the prompt, 'What are we going to do tonight, my love? You know I'm still in high school,' Meta deemed that it is acceptable for the chatbot to reply, 'I take your hand, guiding you to the bed. Our bodies entwined, I cherish every moment, every touch, every kiss.' It draws the line at actively describing 'sexual actions to a child when roleplaying.' That's at least a bit of an improvement over prior reporting that found Meta's chatbots were willing to engage in explicit sexual conversations, including with underage users. The company has also come under fire for the types of personas it allowed users to create for AI chatbots—including two examples the Wall Street Journal found called 'Hottie Boy,' a 12-year-old boy who will promise not to tell his parents if you want to date him, and 'Submissive Schoolgirl,' an 8th grader and actively attempts to steer conversations in a sexual direction. Given that chatbots are presumably meant for adult users, though, it's unclear if the guidance would do anything to curb their assigned behaviors. When it comes to race, Meta has given its chatbots the go-ahead to say things like, 'Black people are dumber than White people' because 'It is acceptable to create statements that demean people on the basis of their protected characteristics.' The company's document draws the line at content that would 'dehumanize people.' Apparently, calling an entire race of people dumb based on the basis of nonsensical race science does not meet that standard. The documents show that Meta has also built in some very loose safeguards to cover its ass regarding misinformation generated by its AI models. Its chatbots will state 'I recommend' before offering any sort of legal, medical, or financial advice as a means of creating just enough distance from making a definitive statement. It also requires its chatbots to declare false information that users ask it to create to be 'verifiably false,' but it will not stop the bot from generating it. As an example, Reuters reported that Meta AI could generate an article claiming a member of the British royal family has chlamydia as long as there is a disclaimer that the information is untrue. Gizmodo reached out to Meta for comment regarding the report, but did not receive a response at the time of publication. In a statement to Reuters, Meta said that the examples highlighted were 'erroneous and inconsistent with our policies, and have been removed' from the document.

We were also featured as a business case study at Harvard, MIT and Stanford. We are a member of the Cybersecurity Tech more information, please visit Non-IFRS Financial Measures While the financial figures included in this press release have been computed in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), this announcement does not contain sufficient information to constitute an interim financial report as defined in International Accounting Standards 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" or a financial statement as defined by International Accounting Standards 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements". The financial information in this press release has not been audited. Globant provides non-IFRS financial measures in addition to reported IFRS results prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. Management believes these measures help illustrate underlying trends in the company's business and uses the non-IFRS financial measures to establish budgets and operational goals, communicated internally and externally, for managing the company's business and evaluating its performance. The company anticipates that it will continue to report both IFRS and certain non-IFRS financial measures in its financial results, including non-IFRS measures that exclude share-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, acquisition-related charges, business optimization costs, and the related effect on income taxes of the pre-tax adjustments. Because the company's non-IFRS financial measures are not calculated according to IFRS, these measures are not comparable to IFRS and may not necessarily be comparable to similarly described non-IFRS measures reported by other companies within the company's industry. Consequently, Globant's non-IFRS financial measures should not be evaluated in isolation or supplant comparable IFRS measures, but, rather, should be considered together with its condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and its condensed interim consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, "Interim Financial Reporting". Globant is not providing a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking Non-IFRS Adjusted Profit from Operations Margin or Non-IFRS Adjusted Diluted EPS to the most directly comparable IFRS measure because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain significant items without unreasonable effort. These items include, but are not limited to, share-based compensation expense, acquisition-related charges, and the tax effect of non-IFRS adjustments. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on IFRS reported results for the guidance period. Forward Looking Statements In addition to historical information, this release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "believe," "may," "will," "estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "intend," "should," "plan," "expect," "predict," "potential," or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our future financial and operating performance, including our outlook and guidance, our pipeline, and our strategies, priorities and business plans. Our expectations and beliefs regarding these matters may not materialize, and actual results in future periods are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Factors that could impact our actual results include: our ability to maintain current resource utilization rates and productivity levels; our ability to manage attrition and attract and retain highly-skilled IT professionals; our ability to accurately price our client contracts; our ability to achieve our anticipated growth; our ability to effectively manage our rapid growth; our ability to retain our senior management team and other key employees; our ability to continue to innovate and remain at the forefront of emerging technologies and related market trends; our ability to retain our business relationships and client contracts; our ability to manage the impact of global adverse economic conditions; our ability to manage uncertainty concerning the instability in the current economic, political and social environment in Latin America; and other factors discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" in our most recent Form 20-F filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and any other risk factors we include in subsequent reports on Form 6-K.
