June 2018 - Azure Bot Service and Conversational AI

Please join us for our next Phoenix Azure Users Group meeting on Azure Bot Service and Conversational AI. Our presenter will be Ricky Jimenez - Valore Partners Azure Practice Lead. Conversational AI is the next user interface (UI) wave in computing. With Microsoft’s Conversational AI tools developers can build, connect, deploy, and manage intelligent bots that naturally interact with their users on a website, app, Cortana, Microsoft Teams, Skype, Facebook Messenger, Slack, and more. In this session we will discuss the Azure Bot Service and the Cognitive Services most commonly used when building intelligent conversational bots. Learn how to develop, debug and deploy a bot in Azure. We have some cool demos to show, at least I think they are :) Valore Partners will be raffling off Microsoft Store gift cards while supplies last. To enter the raffle you will simply need to sign in when you arrive! Important - Even though the meetup start time says 5 PM, the official start time is 5:30 PM. You can arrive before 5:30 PM in order to sign-in, but the meeting will kick-off at 5:30. Parking is free, please use any visitors parking spot or the top level of the parking garage which you can access from the northwest side of the building. Food and refreshments will be provided as well! We are looking forward to seeing you at the meeting! Sincerely, Phoenix Azure User Group Team
