> [@Festinger](#): > > We have a second private support category where the AI chatbot should reply to ‘every’ post without being mentioned. The AI chatbot should be triggered by a keyword. ‘every’ post? Or only those with a keyword? Are those two different requirements? > [@Discourse AI - AI triage](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-ai-ai-triage/281227/1): > > **Automated Responses:** The post classifier can generate replies to posts using predefined responses. This is useful for addressing frequently asked questions or common queries, sending spam to junk categories, and more. Perhaps you could mention Chatbot in the predefined response and the bot will follow up? That would mean two Posts but might work. So if your predefined response was “@Chatbot (or whatever you’ve renamed it to) please handle this” then Chatbot would follow up. Obviously you can tailor that response. Note Chatbot can respond to whispers too (if you configure it so), so if the predefined response was in a whisper then normal users would only see the Chatbot response which might look neater. I’m open to extending the capability of Chatbot if you wish to hire me to do so, so long as we can come up with a sufficiently generic solution that would be useful to others, but it makes sense to leverage what exists I think? I wonder if the best action here is to add a Whisper capability to the AI Post Classifier? You could hire someone to PR that or raise it as a #Contribute > Feature and hope it gets prioritised. That would undoubtedly be genericly useful? --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-chatbot/256652)._
