Talk 2 - Deborah Dahl, Principal, Conversational Technologies

Today's virtual assistant platforms, such as Amazon Alexa, Google DialogFlow & Microsoft LUIS, offer highly capable & easy to use development tools. Yet the success of any application critically depends on the upfront design process that happens even before developers start using the tools. We have to answer such questions as the users' motivations for using the application in the first place (intents) & the information that the application needs from the users for the system to address these goals (entities). This information will feed directly into the development process. At a high level, this design process is independent of specific development platforms, but each platform has limitations that have to be taken into account in the design process. This talk will review strategies for designing the intents & entities needed for scalable & maintainable applications. It will also discuss accommodating designs to the limitations of popular platforms.
