🔥Human-like chatbots from Google: Towards a Human-like Open-Domain Chatbot.
TLDR: humanity is one huge step closer to a chat-bot, which can chat about anything and has great chance of success, passing #TuringTest
What does it mean: As an example, soon you will have to be extra-cautious chatting in #dating apps, because there will be more chat-bots, who can seem humane.
This also means that there will some positive and productive applications too: more sophisticated selling operators, on-demand psychological support, you name it.
It might be surprising, but #seq2seq still works. Over 5+ years of working on neural conversational models, general progress is a fine-tune of basic approach. It is a proof that much can be still discovered, along with room for new completely different approaches.
