Summary

In this chapter, we learned about the basics of natural language and global considerations. We also looked at the relationship between conversational AI and NLP and explored interactive and non-interactive applications.

In the next chapter, we will be covering considerations concerning selecting applications of NLP. Although there are many ways that this technology can be applied, some possible applications are too difficult for the state of the art. Other applications that seem like good applications for NLP can actually be solved by simpler technologies. In the next chapter, you will learn how to identify these.
