Explanation

In Amazon Lex, an Intent is the component that identifies what the user wants to accomplish. It represents the goal or purpose behind a user's input.

Let's break down the Amazon Lex components:

• Intent: Defines what the user wants to achieve (e.g., "book an appointment", "check order status")

• Slots: Specific pieces of data needed to fulfill the intent (e.g., date, time, order number)

• Utterances: Sample phrases users might say to trigger the intent

• Fulfillment: The action taken to complete the intent, often involving AWS Lambda functions

In this case, identifying "what the user wants to do" is exactly the purpose of an Intent in Amazon Lex's conversational interface architecture.
