10.1: Introduction to Chatbots – Programming with Text

Hello welcome to a new  series about chatbots and this series will probably find itself within my programming with text quartz that I began about this past year and made a whole bunch of videos for the present time year later on I want to then add content to it therefore what I wish to include is about check BOTS so I wish to okay so first what’s a talk bot so I’m going to make use of the Wikipedia meaning which states a talk bot is a pc program which conducts a conversation via auditory or textual techniques and this is the kind of thing that is already in countless my examples in which you understand users are typing in text therefore gets processed plus some other text happens perhaps on a web page I have this whole series on Twitter BOTS those Twitter BOTS you could think about chat BOTS that conversation could be just one single way it’s a bot that simply tweets when an hour states one thing on audience nobody replies or maybe it’s a one-to-many conversation in which anytime someone tweets at Twitter bot the bot replies with one thing maybe it’s two BOTS conversing with both therefore the talk bot is this is a brook this is a wider term than items that I in fact looked at before I simply looked at certain types of talk BOTS without mentioning the word talk bot so now what I do is say like well let’s say we think about a pc program having a conversation with an individual and that can we reach that goal with in the web browser with available supply tools can we also then even as we do this consider oh we’re able to make stuff for a commercial medium like Twitter or maybe it’s a vocals conversational screen with hello Siri evidently these markers aren’t smart markers someone will invent that though in which i could simply ask my marker a question but not a problem alexa expo what is the climate today in new york ok evidently my small expo whiteboard spray marker it would happen nice if it was really spontaneous but I did so this early in the day and I’m remaking this movie wanting to get this jokes Mantes it’s not working okay so but we forgot that I had admiration that I became doing a talk pod is a pc that’s the conversation via auditory or textual technique so I want to get to all these things on a glance at some available supply tools mix up having the web browser I want to see can we do stuff with vocals and message recognition can we interface with commercial items that I’m now evidently buzz marketing for free beautifully inside movie so there’s there’s a lengthy reputation for this tradition of computer systems having conversations by no means is this I’m now going to present a presentation associated with the reputation for this and I’ll you will need to add some links in particular to an article that that truly offers you a history of talk BOTS that it is a great article that we’ll link to inside movie’s description but lives are most likely being one of the most famous people from 1966 and it is simulated conversation utilizing pattern matching and replacement and this is something that I want to type what are the different processes for making a talk bot how do you determine how does the bot the computer program know very well what the person stated how does the bot response is it hard-coded typed replies is it machine learning neural network created replies they are some things that i will not explore in these videos another famous example is Alice from 1995 synthetic linguistic internet computer and Tina is the better acronym ever well this is why I want to point out Alice is with Alice arrived one thing called AI ml synthetic cleverness markup language so a markup language really for composing a script for a talk bot therefore if the consumer states this the talk bot states this your individual states this the talk bot states this plus the script appears something such as this so there could be this concept of a pattern and a there may be this concept of setting a topic or response templates this whole kind of and this is an I encourage you to definitely investigate this at Alice cooking pot org exactly why I’m mentioning this is my very first movie is going to begin using one thing called rive script that is an open supply talk bot brain making tool kind of similar to using the zones from markup and syntax similar to Alice so they are some crucial considerations this is that article that I became talking about so I highly recommend you go and read it should you want to kind of comprehend somewhat about the reputation for talk bots and also in which this concept of deep learning neural sites may easily fit into that I gets to in a future movie however things you really wish to consider are types of conversation so retrieval versus generative so I’m going to begin with retrieval based systems which are much easier meaning i simply have actually similar to this script of exactly what the bots can say and I’m wanting to match some sort of pattern of exactly what the consumer is saying and reply in a given way versus a generative system in which i may have an algorithm that spot that yields exactly what the exactly what the bot states at all whatsoever long versus quick conversations I want to stay with quick conversations so how do we make a bot that simply can tell a knock-knock joke or respond to a knock-knock joke that is a quick conversation or imagine a guess a number that is in fact among the examples we’ll make in a future movie of that’s already been hey that is what I’m able to reference it about a talk bot which you that thinks of a number while you will need to imagine it available versus shut domain so might be you making a talk bot that is like pretty much how to purchase you understand ordering a pizza versus i’m a psychology bot and keep in touch with me about any of your issues I will respond so entirely available domain so once again I want to begin with to learn about talk BOTS and also prototype and also make things easily and quickly I want to I’m going to begin with quick shut retrieval based systems but hopefully as this movie series expands i may be able to investigate generative systems much longer conversations more available available domain conversations and once again countless my refresh my learning and sources concerning this originated in this wonderful article right here so write script this is how I’m going to begin i enjoy you will need to utilize available supply free things whenever you can although I think to really push experiments inside conversational screen direction a vocals stuff we are going to have to sooner or later use some things produced by large business as an interface along with their API resembles what I did with Twitter so rice Script is very good because it’s a simple scripting language it’s based away from this concept of synthetic cleverness markup language but it’s slightly different and even simpler it simply has a few simple rules I’m gonna you will need to go through a number of them with you but actually we’ll show you the web page in which it simply defines all the rules it’s kind of thing you are going to wish to read your self it’s open-source license to MIT in order to make use of it for it’s really open-source permissive license and you may make use of it with many different programming languages go java javascript perl python perhaps more but so I’m likely to make use of it with JavaScript so within the next if you keep watching this this is why I last understand this we made a slip presentation aren’t we aren’t ia good presenter of things online with my fall presentation when you continue steadily to watch these videos we are going to have a slip presentation once again I will start with simply speaking you through principles of appear script I will then make a glance at utilizing write script in the web browser with JavaScript and in the end i’ll think of it with a collection called p5 message allowing me to help for me personally to utilize message to text and text to message from web browser after which fundamentally move forward away from that too so I hope you watch some of these chatbot videos and also make some stuff and present me your feedback
