Chapter 5. Understanding and Responding to Natural Language

We've built bots that can play games, store data, and provide useful information. The next step isn't information gathering, it's processing. This chapter will introduce natural language processing (NLP) and show how we can use it to enhance our bots even further.

In this chapter, we will cover:

A brief introduction to natural language
A Node implementation
Natural language processing
Natural language generation
Displaying data in a natural way

Paul Asjes

Paul Asjes started programming on his TI-83 calculator in high school and has been hooked ever since. Specializing in JavaScript, he is always interested in staying up to date with the latest developments in the field. Currently, he is building universal full-stack apps with technologies such as React, Webpack, and Node when he's not spending far too much time on Slack. Since his IRC days, he has been interested in chat bots and how they can be used. He has written several Slack bots to date, ranging from bots that facilitate playing games to bots that retrieve important business metrics.
