In this chapter, we will create a chatbot. We will do so in a progressive manner and will make the chatbot in two layers. The first section of the chapter introduces the chatbot concept, followed by a section on implementing a basic rule-based chatbot system. The last section discusses the training of a sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) recurrent neural network (RNN) model on a publicly available dataset. The final chatbot will be able to answer specific questions asked of the ...
