As the demand in Machine Learning and AI keeps growing, new technologies will keep coming in the market which will impact our day-to-day activities, and one such technology is Virtual Assistant Bots or simply Chatbots. Chatbots have evolved from being Menu/Button based, to Keywords based and now Contextual based. The most advanced among all of the above is contextual based because it uses Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence techniques to store and process the training models which help the chatbot to give better and appropriate response when user asks domain specific questions to the bot. The idea is to create a medical chatbot that can diagnose the disease and provide basic details about the disease before consulting a doctor. This will help to reduce healthcare costs and improve accessibility to medical knowledge through medical chatbot. The chatbots are computer programs that use natural language to interact with users. Our project focuses on providing the users immediate and accurate prediction of the diseases based on their symptoms. For the prediction of diseases, we have used Decision tree algorithm. Chatbots can play a major role in reshaping the healthcare industry by providing predictive diagnosis.
