Mastering Chatbots Using Botpress, Rasa And Transformers

All you need to develop your next AI Chatbot using Open-Source tools like Botpress, Rasa, Transformers and FastAPI

What you'll learn

Developing Chatbots using Open-Source tools like Botpress, Rasa and Transformers. No cloud based solutions.

Understand all of the Chatbot developing pillars like intent-detection, entity-recognition, conversation flow and more.

Develop Neural Networks models to detect entities and Recognize entities in the user messages.

Integrate with third parties and APIs to develop mature chatbots with live data.

Develop web applications using fastAPI to support the chatbot services.

Learn via developing a set of real-world chatbot projects.

Requirements

A big portion of this course does not require any programming skills. Just the basics of Python and JavaScript are required for the advanced levels

Description

Are you ready to learn how to build powerful and AI-supported chatbots from scratch?there are a lot of courses out there that teach you how to develop chatbots. So what makes this course DIFFERENT?We're NOT going to use any cloud-based chatbot solutions like Dialogflow, IBM Watson, or Microsoft Azure. Instead, we'll be focusing on free and open-source technologies that are just as robust and powerful.We're NOT just going to talk only about the basics of chatbot development. We’re going to dive deeply into this world.This course is full of project-based tutorials. A lot of techniques will be derived via developing a set of chatbot projectsChatbots are everywhere and are becoming an increasingly important part of our daily lives. They're used for a wide range of applications, from customer service to online shopping, and they're only getting more advanced and sophisticated.In the course, we delve into the different types of chatbots and their use cases, including rule-based chatbots, AI-powered chatbots, and conversational AI. We also cover the various technologies and platforms that are used to build chatbots, such as natural language processing (NLP), machine learning (ML), and chatbot development open-source projects like Botpress, Rasa, Transformers, fastAPI, Docker, and more.In this course, you will learn:How to Setup your development environment toolsHow to Install and start your first Botpress projectYou will Understand what the conversation flow studio isDevelop the different types of chatbot response templatesYou will learn how to Integrate with third parties and APIs to provide external information for usersHow to Develop a QnA chatbotsUnderstand the problem intent detection and how to solve it using either rule-based or neural networks techniquesHow to recognize entities in the user message and how to fill the slots.How to collect the data from users and forward them to an external API or store them in a database.How to develop your Rasa Chatbot Assistant modelsHow to integrate Botpress with Rasa Chatbot AssistantHow to develop a fastAPI app to serve your AI projectsHow to integrate your chatbot with popular messaging platforms like Facebook messenger and TelegramMore …By the end of the course, students will have a comprehensive understanding of the current state of chatbot technology and how it is being used in real-world applications. This knowledge will equip students with the skills and confidence to embark on their own chatbot projects and contribute to the rapidly evolving field of conversational AI.
