It's getting bot in here – botcamp
- matthart 10y agohey everybody, we're doing botcamp at betaworks this summer for people buildingaround the chat UI (alexa, AI, fb messenger bot, etc). we'll host 10 in new york and invest $200k in each. apply via our bot, of course :)
- pmonty 10y agoReally fantastic looking program, so glad it's happening in NYC!
- bthdonohue 10y agoReally skeptical about this whole "bot" thing, what makes you guys think that there's any big opportunities here? Especially since it seems the first wave of bots to come out have not been well received...
- matthart 10y agoI think we're still very early in figuring out what "should" be a bot, what expectations are around what they can do, etc. there are a number of Alexa skills people really like (i like some you have built). But in the same way that there are good & bad websites and the UI conventions raise the bar for everyone, the same is true for conversational interfaces. we're all still in the learning phase. That's what makes it so much fun!
- bthdonohue 10y agoGood response.
