Webinar Speakers:

• Cheuk Ting Ho
  [1] Title: Why are chatbots so bad? - Demystifying Natural Language Processing Used in Chatbots

• Lorena Balan
  [2] Title: Improved Machine Learning with Kedro

---------

Abstracts:
[1] Bad chatbots are everywhere: some of them are selection manuals in disguise, some of them are search engines with a pretty face. I have built chatbots with different tools in my career and I am an NLP enthusiast. I hope by explaining the NLP used, people start building better chatbots.

[2] Lorena Balan, MEng in Computer Science, will be presenting about Kedro, an open-source workflow library for implementing and easing software engineering practices in the Data/Machine Learning pipeline context. We will be examining it's applicability in a wide range of projects, from single-user projects running on a local environment, to enterprise-level team projects, when teams need to work in a structured way and reduce the effort required to take machine learning models into the production environment.

STAY TUNED!
