A student’s attention status during a digital conversation can differ when talking to an intelligent agent, that is, a chatterbot interactive. There is evidence that brain waves have different oscillations during the study. A virtual platform with an artificial intelligence chatterbot was explored in this study. During the study, participants were asked to use the Neurosky Mindwave sensor to assess their attention levels in real time. Statistical analyses of the results revealed significant effects on the participants’ attention levels. The chatbot was associated with dominant proportions of delta and theta brain waves in didactic content. Conversation via social interaction chatbot triggered dominant gamma brain waves.
