Description
Summary:A computer program that can perform many tasks automatically, the Telegram Bot is able to facilitate our activities. One of them is improving group cohesiveness. A newly-formed community in West Java, Bandung Raya Confero Community (BRCC) uses the Bot as a means of communication in its official Telegram group 'barayaconfero.org.' Using descriptive case study approach, this study sought to describe the optimization of Bot in barayaconfero.org Telegram group in improving the cohesiveness of its members. The data were collected through direct observation, interview, and literature study. The results showed that the Bot of barayaconfero.org was identified as "Abah." As a Telegram Bot, Abah can help BRCC members to identify other members' data based on vehicle registration plate number or hull number registered through BRCC's official website. In addition, Abah is also able to identify all official activities in the official website www.barayaconfero.org. Thanks to these abilities, all up-to-date official activities can be delivered to the Telegram group, so the members will be informed. The study concludes that the optimization of Abah as a Bot in barayaconfero.org Telegram group can increase the cohesiveness of BRCC.
