Use this bot to answer your questions about the most recent rules and regulations. Please review the bot's capabilities and limitations prior to use.
Welcome to the Abraxas Labs Q&A Bot. Make sure to read the below carefully. If you've already read it, you can skip to the bot now.
While our AI-powered chatbot—trained on the current Oklahoma Regulations for the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Industry—is designed to be highly informative and efficient, it's crucial to understand its limitations for the most effective user experience. Below, we outline some potential pitfalls and their impact on the answers you may receive from the bot.
1. Language Ambiguity
Problem
Natural language is inherently ambiguous. The same sentence can mean different things based on the context in which it's used. For example, asking "What are the testing requirements?" could refer to quality testing of cannabis products or license requirements for testing laboratories.
Impact
The bot may provide an answer that is technically accurate but not what you were looking for.
2. Incomplete or Partial Queries
Problem
If you input a question that is vague or incomplete, the chatbot might struggle to provide a precise answer. For example, asking "license?" is too ambiguous for the bot to provide a detailed response.
Impact
Expect generic answers for generic queries. The bot may ask for further clarification, which could lengthen the time needed to get your answer.
3. Regulatory Updates
Problem
While the bot is trained on the most current regulations at the time of its last update, regulations change frequently.
Impact
Information might be outdated or not reflect the most current legal landscape. Always refer to official documentation for the most current information.
4. Context Limitation
Problem
While the chatbot has the ability to understand and remember past interactions of the current chat, this context window is limited. Hence, if you need to have a conversational interaction with the bot (e.g. to ask it follow-up questions), you may notice degraded performance if your chat is lengthy. In such cases, it would be of benefit to start a new chat in an incognito window.
Impact
You may have to provide full context for each question you ask, especially if your questions are part of a broader or more complex issue.
5. Complex Multi-Part Questions
Problem
If you ask a question that has multiple parts or requires cross-referencing different sets of regulations, the bot may not be able to fully comprehend the complexity.
Impact
The answer might address only one aspect of your query or give you an overly simplified response.
6. Non-Regulatory Questions
Problem
The bot is specialized in Oklahoma's Medical Marijuana Regulations. Asking questions outside of this scope, like general cannabis cultivation tips, won't yield accurate answers.
Impact
You'll receive a prompt that the question falls outside of the chatbot's expertise, guiding you to seek expert advice for such topics.
7. Response Time
Problem
Prolonged response time with more complex, logic-heavy questions.
Impact
While this is not a problem per se, it is a limitation of the current AI systems - the response time may be prolonged when the question asked is complex or requires higher-level logic to answer the question.
8. Interpretation vs. Legal Advice
Problem
While the chatbot can provide information, it cannot offer legal advice.
Impact
For legal concerns, consult with a qualified attorney.
Understanding these limitations can help you frame your questions more effectively and know when to seek out more authoritative sources. Feel free to interact with our chatbot for general guidance, but always verify any critical information from official regulatory bodies or qualified professionals.
