The new chatbot, called Ask DoorDash, allows users to search the app for what they're looking for in their own words instead of having to scroll through restaurants and stores to build a cart.
The proliferation of advanced conversational AI models allows for more intuitive user interfaces, and companies are leveraging this to enhance customer experience and operational efficiency.
