API.AI Tutorial - An Introduction to API.AI
summary
API.AI (now on Google infrastructure) shows how to map user utterances to intents and entities and keep state with context, using a webhook to a weather API to fulfill queries. The demo builds a Hal 9000–style chatbot that answers weather requests for multiple locations and times and even returns movie quotes, and it works live. Claims: voice/chat interfaces may handle 30% of browsing and 50% of searches by 2020. Platform stats: 150,000 developers, 14 languages, free to start.
