8. b
   Explanation: Frequently, customers might mistype a word or enter a phrase that is slightly different from what is defined in the entity. For example, a customer might enter “softball” instead of “baseball.” Because both sports use the same type of equipment, in terms of product categories, “softball” should be considered the same as “baseball.” Smart matching lets the bot accept vague user input based on the list items that are given to the entity. In other words, the bot does not have to find an exact match. When smart matching is turned on, the bot will automatically auto-correct misspellings and expand the matching logic semantically, such as automatically matching “softball” to “baseball”.
