Chatbot services are used in various fields in connection with AI services. Security research on AI is also in its infancy, but research on practical security in the service implementation stage using it is more insufficient. This paper analyzes the security requirements for chatbot services linked to AI services. First, the paper analyzes the recently published papers and articles on AI security. A general implementation model is established by investigating chatbot services provided in the market. The implementation model includes five components including a chatbot management system and an AI engine Based on the established model, the protection assets and threats specialized in Chatbot services are summarized. Threats are organized around threats specialized in chatbot services through a survey of chatbot service managers in operation. Ten major threats were drawn. It derived the necessary security areas to cope with the organized threats and analyzed the necessary security requirements for each area. This will be used as a security evaluation criterion in the process of reviewing and improving the security level of chatbot service.

This study examined whether the social support (emotional support, information support) provided by customers through chatbot service affects the satisfaction of chatbot service felt by customers and whether the satisfaction of chatbot service affects loyalty and intention to continue using chatbot service. In order to confirm the moderating effect of social presence of chatbot service, a total of 300 effective data were obtained by conducting an online survey divided into a group that recognizes social presence highly and a group that recognizes low. As a result of the analysis, the path from emotional support to satisfaction of chatbot service was supported in the group that recognized social presence highly, and the path from emotional support to satisfaction of chatbot service was not supported in the group that recognized social presence low, and the difference was confirmed in the hypothesis path coefficient. This is interpreted as the social presence affecting human emotional response.This study can provide implications for the function of social presence of chatbot service in that it applied information support and emotional support, which are two factors of social support, to chatbot service, and demonstrated the relationship between satisfaction, loyalty, and continuous use according to the degree of social presence of chatbot users.

This study was conducted to analyze the characteristics of the artificial intelligence chatbot service of the library and compare the usability of the chatbot service applied to the library, and to propose a plan to improve the usability of the artificial intelligence chatbot service in the library. In order to achieve this research purpose, usability comparison factors were extracted through previous studies on the usability evaluation of artificial intelligence chatbot services, and based on case studies, artificial intelligence chatbot services applied to libraries were classified into their own website-based and SNS-based chatbot services according to the platform. Experiments, questionnaires, and interviews were conducted to evaluate the usability of website-based and SNS-based chatbot services applied to the library. Based on the results of the usability evaluation, implications and improvement plans for the artificial intelligence chatbot service of the library were derived.

This project has been conducted to improve the usability of Chatbot Services such as Google(Allo) and Facebook M(Messenger. Based on the evaluation, this study aims to suggest the solutions to improve the usability of domestic Chatbot services and future directions for their development. It provides the overall understanding of the AI Chatbot service and the feature of Chatbot service through literature search. Furthermore, we summarized the current standing and the prospect of domestic messenger-based assistant Chatbot services. For conducting user evaluation, Peter Morville's honeycomb model is applied to in-depth user interviews. The followings are elements that could be amended to improve the service. The service should be incorporated by intuitive elements for users' understanding its functions and eliminate any elements that interfere with usability. The accuracy should be increased to improve the user satisfaction. This research will provide the future guidelines to improve the usability of Chabot services through continuous evaluation by users.

This study explores the potential of using a library chatbot to improve the non-face-to-face digital reference services for academic library users by designing and implementing a library chatbot. Through data analysis, user needs and library services were analyzed, and a scenario was designed by selecting an appropriate development method. For user-friendly interaction, the personality of the chatbot and user interface was designed to evaluate its usability. In addition, the accuracy was verified through the response accuracy evaluation and performance evaluation of the chatbot, and the effectiveness of the chatbot was evaluated through a user satisfaction survey. In order to manage the operation and maintain service quality, the chatbot is improved by monitoring user-chatbot conversations and reflecting user feedback. Based on these findings, recommendations for designing and implementing a library chatbot were made to help improve library reference services.

챗봇이란 인공지능 기반으로 인간과 대화하는 로봇을 일컬으며, 요청과 응답구조로 운영되는 인공지능 프로그램을 말한다. 챗봇은 사용자와 상호작용하기 위해 대화형 인터페이스를 사용하는 소프트웨어로 기존 사용자의 언어를 이해하고 학습하여 인간이 대화하듯이 대화를 하도록 설계되어있다. 챗봇을 사용하는 회사는 인건비를 줄이고 빅데이터를 기반으로 전문적이고 정확한 답변을 제공할 수 있어 활용 효율성이 높은 편이다. 그러나 회사가 챗봇을 적극적으로 도입하고 사용자에게 긍정적인 영향을 줄 것이라는 기대와 달리 사용자는 챗봇을 계속 사용하지 않고있다. 따라서 본 논문은 챗봇 서비스의 지속사용의도에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 파악하고자 한다. 특히 인공지능 특성이 챗봇 서비스 지속적 사용의도에 미치는 영향을 연구한다.

In this study, it was necessary to examine consumer acceptance attitudes from an in-depth and multifaceted perspective at a time when the need for chatbot services in various industrial fields is increasing and being activated in earnest. Accordingly, this study conducted a structural equation model to examine not only the structural relationship between ease, usefulness, and playfulness among the main functions of chatbot services and their acceptance attitudes, but also whether there is a mediating effect of service value in the relationship. As a result of the main study of this study, it was identified that the relationship between the ease, usefulness, and playfulness factors, which are the main functional sub-factors of the chatbot service, and their acceptance attitude and service value had a statistically static influence relationship. Based on these research results, the main research conclusions suggest that when companies in various fields provide chatbot services in the future, it is necessary to clearly determine the influencing factors that can affect the chatbot service acceptance attitude and provide these services. Through this, it is expected that the AI chatbot service will strengthen communication with consumers and establish itself as a customized and personalized counseling service.
