Creating AI driven voice experiences with Alexa Conversations
|
Abstract
This July, Amazon Alexa announced the public beta launch of Alexa Conversations dialogue management. With the launch, Alexa developers can now leverage a state-of-the-art dialogue manager powered by deep learning to create complex, nonlinear experiences — conversations that go well beyond today's typical one-shot interactions, such as "Alexa, what's the weather forecast for today?" or "Alexa, set a ten-minute pasta timer".

Behind the scenes of building a socialbot
Abstract
What happens when you replace a human participant in a conversation with a socialbot? What does it mean to have an engaging conversation with an AI assistant? How can that kind of conversation prove to be valuable, and can it provide its own kind of connection? The participants in this year’s Alexa Prize contest — an academic collaboration that empowers university students to innovate in the field of conversational AI by creating a socialbot using Alexa tools and capabilities — were driven by those questions.
