Abstract: A computing system for real-time analyzing meeting conversations using artificial intelligence (AI) is configured to establish a meeting communication channel that facilitates a meeting among multiple client systems. Each of the multiple client systems corresponds to a meeting participant. In response to receiving communication from the multiple client systems, the computing system analyzes currently received communication via an AI engine while the meeting remains active. The currently received communication is communication received within a rolling time window ending at a current time. Based on the analysis, the computing system identifies an agenda item that has a highest correlation with the currently received communication and a sentiment of at least one participant. The computing system then determines a level of interest of the agenda item based on the sentiment of the participant and causes at least one client system to display a notification or an alert or make suggestions.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to processing operations configured to generate and present a chat bot diagnostic visualization that provides real-time visual insights into operation of a chat bot for debugging assistance. A chat bot diagnostic tool is programmed to launch a graphical user interface that displays a visual representation of diagnostic data for debugging a chat bot in real-time. To enable conversational specific data to be reviewed, the present disclosure is configured to implement a middleware adapter within in a run-time stack of a chat bot that is configured to trace data traffic between a chat bot and a channel of an application/service. This enables the chat bot diagnostic tool to observe data traffic and filter the data traffic to identify relevant data for debugging a chat bot. A debugging data visualization of a chat bot interaction is emulated through a graphical user interface of the chat bot diagnostic tool.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods and computer readable media for providing tools and features related to developing asset packages that may be incorporated within the framework of various bot packages. For example, systems disclosed herein can provide an asset development interface that enables a user of a computing device to develop various types of bot packages by adding and/or modifying asset packages. The systems provide a mechanism whereby a developer can obtain an asset package including one or more discrete action components that are pre-configured and pre-packaged in a way that enables the asset package to be incorporated into the framework of the bot or, alternatively, within the framework of another asset package. The systems described herein further enable content of the asset packages to be selectively accessible to users and associated computing devices that are authorized to view and use the asset packages.

Abstract: A method for utilizing shared memory spaces for data lifecycle management in a conversational AI system includes receiving one or more storage requests directing conversational data to multiple nodes of a conversational data object and storing the conversational data that is directed to each different one of the multiple nodes within a different one of multiple discrete memory spaces. Each of the multiple discrete memory spaces is governed by a scope policy defining a lifetime for data stored within the memory space. The method further provides for erasing data of each node of the multiple different nodes of the conversational data object according to the lifetime defined by the scope policy governing the memory space storing the node.

Abstract: In non-limiting examples of the present disclosure, systems, methods and devices for enabling conversational bot communications are presented. A natural language input may be received by a first conversational bot. A skill needed to fulfill a request in the natural language input may be identified. A determination may be made that the skill is not executable by the first conversational bot. A determination may be made that the skill is executable by a second conversational bot. A request for execution of the skill may be sent from the first conversational bot to the second conversational bot. A request for information needed for the second conversational bot to execute the skill may be received by the first conversational bot from the second conversational bot. The information may be sent from the first conversational bot to the second conversational bot. The skill may be executed.

Abstract: Representative embodiments disclose mechanisms to create analytic metrics for bots. In one set of embodiments, the system creates a custom URI that encodes bot specific information in a URI format. An analytic record is created based on the URI and the analytic record can be logged and/or sent directly to an analytic platform designed to provide analytic metrics for websites. In this fashion, website analytic platforms can be used to provide analytic metrics for bots. In another set of embodiments, analytic records are created that are logged and/or sent directly to a bot specific analytic platform. Such a platform may help derive bot specific analytic metrics.

Abstract: A system and method of automating data profile updating and querying includes building bots using standard schema having predefined data types for collecting data relating to a user or object. A bot stores the collected data in a data profile for the user or object in a graph data store that is queried by that bot or another bot to extract data relating to the user or object. The data relating to the user or object may be collected from two or more data channels including, for example, a channel of spoken data and a channel of typed data. The collected data is selectively processed by a bot to establish context for the collected data and is inserted into a knowledge graph that may be joined to another knowledge graph for querying. The bots automate the collection and sharing of collected profile data with other bots in an application ecosystem.

Abstract: A facility for providing document contents from a server is described. The facility receives from a separate client computing system a retrieval request to return a document identified by a document identifier contained by the retrieval request. The retrieval request has been originated by the client computing system in response to an open request for a file stored on the client computing system that contains the document identifier. The facility transmits to the client a response containing at least a portion of a document to which the document identifier contained by the retrieval request corresponds.
