The Robots Are
Coming
Understanding AI & the chatbot opportunity
ROBOTS!
EVERYWHERE!
Remember Microsoft’s Clippy? Well, thanks
to algorithms, bots suddenly seem cool
again. With all that big data at our disposal,
and a suite of mobile-first messaging apps to
live in, the 2.0 era of interactive bots stands
to not only stick around, but entirely change
the way we experience content. Suddenly
navigation seems a little outdated.
David Look - Optimizing for Love: How Sentiment &
Emotion Are Evolving Online
Chatbot (n) 

A piece of
software that you
text with to get
things done or be
entertained
Messaging is the new
browser, and bots are
the new websites.“
“
Mike Roberts, Head of Messaging @ Kik, said this:
For the first time,
messaging apps are
more popular than
social networks
The Chatbots Are Coming: A Guide to Chatbots, AI and Conversational Interfaces
CHATBOTS
LIVE INSIDE
MESSAGING
APPS
OR IN TEXT 

MESSAGES!
Messaging apps are
where people spend
their time online.
Chatbots are a way to
reach them.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?


By 2020, Gartner
predicts that customers
will manage 85% of
their relationship with
the enterprise without
interacting with a
human.
The new generation
of chatbots are
intelligent….
(Artificially
Intelligent)
But chatbots are only as smart as
the words you feed them.

(That’s why Microsoft had to take
down Tay after just 24 hours.)

- Microsoft (March 2016)
Chatbots "learn" to do things by trawling through a huge swath of
information. They are designed to spot patterns and repeat
actions associated with them when triggered by key words,
phrases or other stimuli. They seem clever, but they're not.

This means that if the input is poor, or repeats questionable
statements, the chatbot's behaviour will evolve accordingly.




Andrew Masterton - Hate Siri? Meet Viv - The Future of Chatbots and Artificial
Intelligence
Chatbots need training, and users need to be carefully
onboarded so that they understand the constraints of the
software they’re interacting with. But even with these
limitations, reducing complicated, confusing processes
down to a natural conversation is potentially very
powerful.
Imagine how much simpler doing your taxes, booking a
vacation or learning how to use a complicated piece of
software could be with a friendly robo-advisor on hand to
help you through the process.


Think about
ordering a pizza…
The fastest way to order a pizza is to call the
restaurant and verbally place your order.
Apps are more private, and remove the
pressure of speaking to a live person, but
they’re more time consuming than picking
up the phone.
A PizzaBot that uses Natural Language
Processing (NLP) offers the best of both
worlds. It’s a fast, convenient and
conversational way for you to get your slice.
Thanks NLP!
Our primary mode of
communication is
texting.
Chatbots let you talk to
your users in the way
they know best.
Worldwide, we send 23 Billion text messages every
single day. Texting is the most widely used app on any
smartphone, and 90% of texts received are read in under
3 minutes.
Messaging apps are taking over from SMS as the most
popular place for all of this text-based communication.
WhatsApp, the most popular messaging apps, reported
that they’re now handling 30 Billion messages daily.
That’s huge.




Chatbots are a way of
connecting with your
users without having to
get them to install an
app.
Guess how many apps the average
American downloaded last month?
ZERO.
?? ?
?
It’s potentially a huge business
opportunity for anyone willing
to jump headfirst and build
something people want.
“
“
Matt Schlicht (Editor, ChatBots Magazine)


Facebook reports that
more than 10,000
developers are already
experimenting with
chatbots on their
platform.


And Slack, the
world’s fastest-
growing business
tool, is investing
$80 Million in new
Slack Bot startups


Brands are already
taking the chatbot
plunge. These
companies have all
released chatbots
into the wild.
It’s the beginning of a brand new
era – there was web, then mobile,
apps and now bots. It is an
incredibly powerful paradigm
shift.“
“
David Marcus, Head of Facebook Messenger, said this:
AI chatbots are becoming a
part of the product mix
alongside web and mobile
apps.
(That’s right. The robots really are coming.)

Today, bots are better at
texting than talking. But
speech recognition technology
is rapidly improving.
The Chatbots Are Coming: A Guide to Chatbots, AI and Conversational Interfaces
Talking to bots will soon be
commonplace, thanks to a new
breed of always-on home
assistants like Alexa and Google
Home.
DID YOU KNOW THAT THEAVERAGE HUMAN SPEAKS150 WORDS A MINUTE,BUT CAN ONLY TYPE 40?
“I see speech approaching a point
where it could become so reliable that
you can just use it and not even think
about it.“
“
Andrew Ng: Chief Scientist @ Baidu
What we’re seeing is an
explosion of apps that
no longer have a
graphical user
interface.
2016 is the year of all
things conversational.
So, does your business need a bot?
A chatbot is a piece of software you can use to solve real problems
for your users.
It could be easy to dismiss the new breed of bots apps as distracting
novelties, or as the next wave of Silicon Valley hype. But the potential
for well-crafted chatbots to add real value is there.
Designing useful and ideally delightful chatbot experiences will take
investment and careful planning. Don’t expect an AI chatbot to
transform your business overnight (or to rise up and take over the
world anytime soon).
Instead, think of it as a logical next step in your product strategy. A
well-orchestrated chatbot gives users a way to communicate with you
directly, in the way that suits them best. It might also allow you to get
more value from APIs that you’ve already built. But as always, the
trick is to start by aligning the goals of your business with the needs,
wants and desires of your customers.
If you want to keep exploring the
botpportunity, we can help.
We’ve been building great
software for startups and
enterprises since 2002.
Understanding our clients’ users and
customers
Working with world leaders in innovation
Exploring new business opportunities
around emerging technology
And we’ve built more
than a few chatbots along
the way.
Our team combines NLP expertise with
a human-centered approach to
designing software. That means we
know how to define, build and train
chatbots that your customers will love
to use.
To test out an online poker engine we
built for one of our clients, we decided
to prototype directly inside Slack. The
result was a PokerBot with an
impeccable poker face.
MEET SOME OF OUR CHATBOTS
PokerBot: A chatbot
poker dealer that lives in
Slack
PopBot: A curatorial
photobot for Kik
Long before Kik launched their public
Bot Shop, they were building
experimental chatbots with TWG. We
built a Kik bot that “listens” to your
photos and creates galleries based on
your preferences.
MEET SOME OF OUR CHATBOTS
Markov lives in the wilds of TWG’s
internal Slack channel. He’s still a baby
bot, but soon he’ll be able to help us
find resources and information by
sharing what members of our team
might say about a particular topic.
MarkovBot: TWG’s very
own bot-in-training
MEET SOME OF OUR CHATBOTS
(You could also ask us about that time we used Slack to turn our
dishwasher into a robot)

The Chatbots Are Coming: A Guide to Chatbots, AI and Conversational Interfaces

  • 1. The Robots Are Coming Understanding AI & the chatbot opportunity
  • 4. Remember Microsoft’s Clippy? Well, thanks to algorithms, bots suddenly seem cool again. With all that big data at our disposal, and a suite of mobile-first messaging apps to live in, the 2.0 era of interactive bots stands to not only stick around, but entirely change the way we experience content. Suddenly navigation seems a little outdated. David Look - Optimizing for Love: How Sentiment & Emotion Are Evolving Online
  • 5. Chatbot (n) 
 A piece of software that you text with to get things done or be entertained
  • 6. Messaging is the new browser, and bots are the new websites.“ “ Mike Roberts, Head of Messaging @ Kik, said this:
  • 7. For the first time, messaging apps are more popular than social networks
  • 10. OR IN TEXT MESSAGES!
  • 11. Messaging apps are where people spend their time online. Chatbots are a way to reach them. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
  • 12. 
 By 2020, Gartner predicts that customers will manage 85% of their relationship with the enterprise without interacting with a human.
  • 13. The new generation of chatbots are intelligent….
  • 15. But chatbots are only as smart as the words you feed them. ? ? ? ? ? ?
  • 16. (That’s why Microsoft had to take down Tay after just 24 hours.) ! ! ! ! ! !
  • 18. Chatbots "learn" to do things by trawling through a huge swath of information. They are designed to spot patterns and repeat actions associated with them when triggered by key words, phrases or other stimuli. They seem clever, but they're not.
 This means that if the input is poor, or repeats questionable statements, the chatbot's behaviour will evolve accordingly.

  • 19. Chatbots need training, and users need to be carefully onboarded so that they understand the constraints of the software they’re interacting with. But even with these limitations, reducing complicated, confusing processes down to a natural conversation is potentially very powerful. Imagine how much simpler doing your taxes, booking a vacation or learning how to use a complicated piece of software could be with a friendly robo-advisor on hand to help you through the process. 

  • 20. Think about ordering a pizza… The fastest way to order a pizza is to call the restaurant and verbally place your order. Apps are more private, and remove the pressure of speaking to a live person, but they’re more time consuming than picking up the phone. A PizzaBot that uses Natural Language Processing (NLP) offers the best of both worlds. It’s a fast, convenient and conversational way for you to get your slice.
  • 22. Our primary mode of communication is texting.
  • 23. Chatbots let you talk to your users in the way they know best.
  • 24. Worldwide, we send 23 Billion text messages every single day. Texting is the most widely used app on any smartphone, and 90% of texts received are read in under 3 minutes. Messaging apps are taking over from SMS as the most popular place for all of this text-based communication. WhatsApp, the most popular messaging apps, reported that they’re now handling 30 Billion messages daily. That’s huge. 

  • 25. 
 Chatbots are a way of connecting with your users without having to get them to install an app.
  • 26. Guess how many apps the average American downloaded last month? ZERO. ?? ? ?
  • 27. It’s potentially a huge business opportunity for anyone willing to jump headfirst and build something people want. “ “ Matt Schlicht (Editor, ChatBots Magazine)
  • 28. 
 Facebook reports that more than 10,000 developers are already experimenting with chatbots on their platform.
  • 29. 
 And Slack, the world’s fastest- growing business tool, is investing $80 Million in new Slack Bot startups
  • 30. 
 Brands are already taking the chatbot plunge. These companies have all released chatbots into the wild.
  • 31. It’s the beginning of a brand new era – there was web, then mobile, apps and now bots. It is an incredibly powerful paradigm shift.“ “ David Marcus, Head of Facebook Messenger, said this:
  • 32. AI chatbots are becoming a part of the product mix alongside web and mobile apps.
  • 33. (That’s right. The robots really are coming.)
  • 39. Today, bots are better at texting than talking. But speech recognition technology is rapidly improving.
  • 41. Talking to bots will soon be commonplace, thanks to a new breed of always-on home assistants like Alexa and Google Home.
  • 42. DID YOU KNOW THAT THEAVERAGE HUMAN SPEAKS150 WORDS A MINUTE,BUT CAN ONLY TYPE 40?
  • 43. “I see speech approaching a point where it could become so reliable that you can just use it and not even think about it.“ “ Andrew Ng: Chief Scientist @ Baidu
  • 44. What we’re seeing is an explosion of apps that no longer have a graphical user interface. 2016 is the year of all things conversational.
  • 45. So, does your business need a bot?
  • 46. A chatbot is a piece of software you can use to solve real problems for your users. It could be easy to dismiss the new breed of bots apps as distracting novelties, or as the next wave of Silicon Valley hype. But the potential for well-crafted chatbots to add real value is there. Designing useful and ideally delightful chatbot experiences will take investment and careful planning. Don’t expect an AI chatbot to transform your business overnight (or to rise up and take over the world anytime soon). Instead, think of it as a logical next step in your product strategy. A well-orchestrated chatbot gives users a way to communicate with you directly, in the way that suits them best. It might also allow you to get more value from APIs that you’ve already built. But as always, the trick is to start by aligning the goals of your business with the needs, wants and desires of your customers.
  • 47. If you want to keep exploring the botpportunity, we can help.
  • 48. We’ve been building great software for startups and enterprises since 2002. Understanding our clients’ users and customers Working with world leaders in innovation Exploring new business opportunities around emerging technology

  • 50. To test out an online poker engine we built for one of our clients, we decided to prototype directly inside Slack. The result was a PokerBot with an impeccable poker face. MEET SOME OF OUR CHATBOTS PokerBot: A chatbot poker dealer that lives in Slack
  • 51. PopBot: A curatorial photobot for Kik Long before Kik launched their public Bot Shop, they were building experimental chatbots with TWG. We built a Kik bot that “listens” to your photos and creates galleries based on your preferences. MEET SOME OF OUR CHATBOTS
  • 52. Markov lives in the wilds of TWG’s internal Slack channel. He’s still a baby bot, but soon he’ll be able to help us find resources and information by sharing what members of our team might say about a particular topic. MarkovBot: TWG’s very own bot-in-training MEET SOME OF OUR CHATBOTS
