Conversational systems are becoming an integral part of our daily routines. Every day, millions of people use natural-language interfaces via in-home devices, phones, or messaging channels such as Messenger. We strive to create new conversational technologies that have a deep understanding of the conversation and the context around it and deliver a personalized experience to the user that is both task oriented and empathic.

The next generation of conversational AI systems will be multi-modal and pro-active, integrating cues across several modalities to provide creative and on-spot response to the users.
