[Feature Proposal] AI-Powered Conversational Weather Assistant Chatbot

[K9Patel]

I'm proposing an AI-powered conversational assistant. Here’s a point-by-point breakdown of how this feature would be genuinely helpful and directly enhance the app's existing strengths:

Solves Complex Questions Instantly: The app currently requires users to perform separate searches to compare locations. The chatbot would allow one-step queries like, "Is it warmer in Rome or Madrid tomorrow?" providing an immediate, valuable comparison that the current UI can't.

Translates Raw Data into Actionable Advice: A user sees "15°C with 20 km/h wind" but doesn't know what that means for them. The bot can answer, "Should I wear a jacket in New York tonight?" by synthesizing temperature, wind, and 'feels-like' data into a practical, real-world recommendation.

Provides Faster, More Direct Answers: Instead of searching for a city and then visually scanning the 5-day forecast, a user can ask, "Will I need an umbrella in London on Friday?" This provides a direct "yes/no" answer, making the app quicker and more efficient for specific planning needs.

Enhances Existing "Smart Search": This is the natural evolution of the smart search feature. It moves beyond just validating city names to understanding user intent, making the app feel more intelligent and responsive to user needs.

Boosts True Accessibility: Aligns perfectly with the project's goal of supporting accessibility by offering a powerful, conversational alternative for users who find navigating graphical interfaces challenging
