Lee Rowlands - Power the interfaces of the future - DrupalSouth 2017 - Rangatira
Conversational interfaces are taking the digital world by storm, from chatbots and AI assistants like Siri to always on devices like Google Home and Amazon Alexa.
If you aren't thinking about using them to interact with your clients and customers, then you should be. With the near ubiquitous nature of smart-phones, voice-first is fast overtaking traditional user input such as touch, pointers and keyboard.
In this session we will give an introduction to Google's API.ai and show how you can use it to build rich conversational UIs that can integrate with a wide range of channels such as Google actions, Facebook Messenger, Slack and Skype as well as powering 24/7 interactions on your website.
We will then look into how you can use your existing Drupal content and entities to directly integrate with API.ai so that your Drupal site can power all of your digital presences, from a single canonical source.
