The Feedback Component helps improve AI-powered features by collecting your opinions on AI-generated content. It appears as simple thumbs up/down buttons that let you rate AI responses, provide detailed feedback, and help improve the system for everyone.

What This Feature Does

The Feedback Component helps improve AI-powered features by collecting your opinions on AI-generated content. It appears as simple thumbs up/down buttons that let you:

  • Rate AI responses - Tell us if the AI did a good job or needs improvement
  • Provide detailed feedback - Share specific suggestions when something didn't work well
  • Help improve the system - Your feedback directly helps make AI features better for everyone
  • Quick and easy rating - Express satisfaction with just one click

Think of it as a way to "train" the AI by telling it what works and what doesn't.

Step-by-Step Examples

Example 1: AI Translation Worked Great

Situation: You used AI to translate your email from English to Spanish, and the translation was perfect.

Steps:
1. Read the Spanish translation the AI provided
2. Notice it sounds natural and captures your meaning perfectly
3. Click the thumbs up button below the translation
4. See the button highlight in blue/green
5. Get confirmation: "Thank you for your feedback!"

Result: The AI learns that this type of translation is working well.

Example 2: AI Optimization Made Things Worse

Situation: You asked AI to improve your case notes, but it removed important details.

Steps:
1. Review the AI's improved version of your notes
2. Notice that key customer information was removed
3. Click the thumbs down button
4. A feedback window opens asking what you didn't like
5. Type: "The AI removed important customer details about their specific product issue"
6. Click "Submit Feedback"
7. Get confirmation that your feedback was received

Result: The AI team learns to preserve important details when optimizing text.

Example 3: AI Translation Had Minor Issues

Situation: AI translated your text but used overly formal language when casual tone was needed.

Steps:
1. Read the translation and notice the tone isn't quite right
2. Click the thumbs down button
3. In the feedback window, type: "Translation is accurate but too formal - should sound more conversational"
4. Submit your feedback
5. Get confirmation message

Result: The AI learns about tone preferences for different types of content.

Tips for Giving Great Feedback
