Title: Chatbots with NLP

Abstract: Chatbots are one of the most highly-hyped new consumer technologies being enabled by modern deep learning. However the hype and the reality often do not connect. Many solutions that are pitched as "chatbots" are actually run by human beings behind an API, and many "chatbot" systems are no better than keyword-based routing. Come learn about what is and is not possible when it comes to chatbots. Learn how to approach chatbot systems from a practical perspective and learn enough machine learning to understand how to break down and approach a chatbot system.
