Lockdown has a lot of us available with free time which for some means streaming videos online. Recently, an old video resurfaced on Facebook, where a grandson had gifted his grandmother a Google Home device, and the grandmother was trying to use it for playing an Italian song. She didn’t even say the trigger word, ‘Hey Google’ correctly, and instead would say ‘Googoo’, which to be honest was hilarious. Google possesses the capability of conversing in Italian and many other languages. NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING IS A SUBFIELD OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND MACHINE LEARNING WHICH DEALS WITH ACTING AS AN INTELLIGENT INTERFACE BETWEEN MACHINES AND HUMANS. A layman would not know how to converse with a machine in binary, he would use his own language. That is when NLP comes into the picture and helps humans hold conversations with smart devices.
