  • Publication number: 20190318238
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for an artificial intelligence system. In one aspect, a system includes multiple artificial intelligence skill agents that have each been trained to perform different actions in a telecommunications system. The system also includes an orchestrator agent that interacts with each of the artificial intelligence skill agents and coordinates which of the artificial intelligence agents performs actions in response to user inputs. The orchestrator agent receives a user input and determines an intent expressed by the user input. The orchestrator agent transmits an instruction to an artificial intelligence skill agent to perform an action that provides a response to the intent. In response to receiving the instruction from the orchestrator agent, the artificial intelligence skill agent performs the action when the artificial intelligence skill agent is capable of carrying out the action.
