Chatbot technologies allow for conversational interfaces using artificial intelligence. Chatbots have evolved from simple script-based assistants to more advanced bots that can understand context, maintain histories of conversations, and collaborate with users. Chatbots work using natural language processing and databases to match user inputs with responses. They are used in messaging platforms, apps, websites, and more to provide information and services with many benefits like 24/7 availability but also challenges like limited capabilities. The future of chatbots includes more personalized and integrated experiences using artificial intelligence and connections to other technologies.

Similar to stage 1 but rules has been split down the middle into two set of rules. One set looks for key phrases and other set checks if form is filled. If yes calls web services.

The Talking Encyclopedia • No longer require predefined form • Build up a representation of what you mean by word by word(Semantic Parsing) • Used for weather forecasting, finding chinese restaurant nearby • Google’s Syntaxnet is one of the example 4. The Historian • Above the stage bots are not good at understnading how the given sentences connects to one another • Build up a representation of what you mean by word by word(Semantic Parsing) • Maintain discourse history • Integrate gesture understaning with language understanding 14
