Content-Based Smart E-Mail Dispatcher Using Large Language Models
About
Email communication has become an integral part of personal and professional life, but handling its vast volume is still a significant issue for large organisations. Manual perusal of emails and forwarding their contents and attachments to intended recipients using other instant messaging platforms has proved to be error-prone and time-consuming leading to losses in terms of productivity and creating undue stress. The main objective of this paper is to explore an alternative mechanism that is to automate the task of dispatching emails based on their contents to the respective WhatsApp groups of students of various semesters of programs in an engineering college, facilitating a smooth flow of information from one end to another end in an organisation. The dispatcher system is built using agents querying large language models (LLMs) to enable it to analyze the contents of emails and route them to the relevant groups of students for their information and consumption. The system harnesses the capabilities of LLMs in analysing the textual contents for decision-making. With a well-structured agent framework prompt that includes email content as input with instructions and context, the system figures out the relevant groups to which the email message is dispatched, thus providing the required information on time. The proposed system does not rely on labelled datasets and provides several benefits, including enhanced productivity and a reduction in the cognitive load associated with reading emails.
