Overview
Conversational Sources are a key interface element displayed alongside AI responses, offering direct references to the data or insights the system used. By showing links or quotes in a card-like format, Conversational Sources help users verify information, explore further context, and understand how the AI formulates a specific response.
A well-implemented Conversational Sources section fulfills several purposes at once: it enhances transparency, fosters user trust, and encourages deeper interaction with the referenced material. By making source details easy to navigate, Conversational Sources ensure that users can quickly validate AI outputs and gain confidence in the accuracy of the information provided.
Key Principles
- Consistency—the referenced text within the Conversational Sources cards must be presented equally.
- Redirection—source cards must include links as proof of the partnership.
