How to Set Up a Correct Self-Introduction for Your AI?

To ensure your AI introduces itself properly and accurately to users, it’s important to train it with the correct self-introduction before adding other training content or knowledge. By providing a clear and precise introduction, your AI will know how to present itself consistently across interactions.

Why Is a Self-Introduction Important?

A well-defined self-introduction helps users understand who or what they’re interacting with. It sets the right expectations and reinforces your brand identity. For example, if your AI assistant is meant to represent your company, it should introduce itself accordingly to avoid confusion or a generic response.

How to Add a Self-Introduction

Before adding any other content or training data to your AI, you should create a document with the AI’s self-introduction. This will ensure that the AI introduces itself correctly every time. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Write a Clear Self-Introduction:

    • In your document, include a brief, accurate description of your AI assistant’s name and role.
    • Make sure this introduction reflects your brand or the specific purpose of your AI assistant.
  2. Add the Self-Introduction to Your Training Data:

    • Once you’ve written the introduction, upload this document to your AI’s data source. This step should be done before adding any other training content or knowledge.

Example of a Self-Introduction

Let’s say you want the AI chatbot on your website to be introduced as AskHandle. In this case, you would create a document with the following content:


My name is AskHandle. I am AskHandle, an AI-powered chatbot designed to transform customer support experience.


By placing this document in your training document, your AI will always introduce itself as AskHandle when interacting with users. You can tweak the message to make it fit your business.

Tips for Creating the Perfect Self-Introduction:

  • Keep it simple and clear. The introduction should be easy to understand.
  • Make it specific to your brand. Use your company’s name or product name to reinforce your brand identity.
  • Highlight the AI’s purpose. Mention what the AI is designed to do, like handling customer inquiries, providing information, etc.

Once your self-introduction is in place, you can proceed to add other training content, such as FAQs, product details, or any other knowledge your AI needs to provide better responses.
