Description

Conversational interfaces (aka bots) are expected to make machine communication feel human. But high-quality bot experiences are very hard to build; certain issues, in particular, make building bots that do not frustrate users difficult. Ofer Ronen explores these issues and suggests methods, such as machine learning, to help developers save time addressing them.
