DIALOGUE AI ROBOT DEMONSTRATION EXPERIMENT AT KYOTO CITY ZOO: "TALK TO IT AND TRAIN IT
It appears to be the world's first demonstration of the technology. The following is a quote.
AI TECHNOLOGY THAT CHATS, QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS AND INTERACTIVELY
We have developed a technology that uses two robots to carry on a chat with a person for about five minutes without breaking down, with one of the robots making a chorus and the two robots working together.
In addition, they created dialogue knowledge of the range of speech that the user is likely to utter and made it possible to respond appropriately.
The result is the world's first technology in which chatting and question-answering go back and forth continuously in both directions without any sense of discomfort.
They have developed a technology that enables not only clear Yes/No dialogues such as question-and-answer sessions, but also conversations with small chats using their original dialogue knowledge database. This technology is the first of its kind in the world. Everyday conversation is high-context, so the words you say are fragmented and the topics of conversation jump from one to another. I'm looking forward to seeing how they're going to solve this difficult problem.

UPGRADING AI THROUGH DEMONSTRATION EXPERIMENTS
Mr. Sugiyama, who was in charge of the development, comments.
AT OUR OPEN LABS AND OTHER EVENTS, WE OFTEN ASK THE ROBOTS FRIENDLY QUESTIONS, BUT WE'D LIKE THEM TO TALK TO US FREELY AND TRAIN THE AI. WE'D LIKE TO USE IT TO DEVELOP A ROBOT THAT CAN CHAT AND LISTEN.
IF YOU LIVE IN KYOTO, HOW ABOUT AI TRAINING FOR THE WEEKEND?
