NLP

In this era, social media has surpassed every medium to generate data. Social media is not only about writing messages, it also about sending audio or video messages and the moment audio and video (with voice) comes into picture, NLP comes into action.

Description automatically generated‘NLP is about using techniques to understand the way humans communicate.’

Using NLP, code tries to convert audio into text and vice versa. Using NLP capabilities there are solutions which talk to humans, understand what they want and then reply to them. NLP also assists in performing actions e.g., a human can ask ‘I want a Chill Coke Zero’, the NLP will recognize this request and get a Cold Coke Drink for customer. At the same time, if Chill Coke Zero is out of stock, using Machine Learning and AI, it can reply to customer in Voice format that ‘At the moment, we are out of stock, would you like to go for Chill Pepsi Black’.
