Despite the hype, chat bots are still very early stage and will have to prove that they can add significant value to the user. With natural language as input, chat bots hold the promise of being the simplest interface to software. The problem is that current technology just doesn’t deliver on that promise. Instead, users need to learn (similarly to a GUI) what commands the bot understands to get value out of it. Based on the latest research in machine learning and dialogue systems, our technology allows developers to build truly conversational bots.
