"Tech & content is there but not in Indian languages. So if you put in right effort & take right decisions then we can build tech that will go out in hands of common man & content will be increased & accessible" Prof Rajeev Sangal, Researcher Machine Translation & AI at #NLPWeek

"Voice-driven services like SSMT, ASR have the potential to make a large social impact because you can make technology accessible to users who are not necessarily literate" - Dr. Preethi Jyothi, Assistant Professor @iitbombay during the workshop on speech technologies at #NLPWeek

"There are interesting ideas coming from linguistics, coming from other branches of NLP & ML. Transfer learning for example can really solve the data scarcity problem." Dr. Pushpak Bhattacharyya, Professor of Computer Science & Engineering Department @iitbombay at #NLPWeek

"There's explosive growth in internet users. Most of these users do not speak English at all. It's important to work on tech so as to be more inclusive of this new set of users & enable technologies for them to use" - Dr. Preethi Jyothi Assistant Professor @iitbombay at #NLPweek.

"Speech & NLP is absolutely essential if we want to make technology, technological services & applications available to everybody. The most natural way to interact with machines is through language." @kalikabali @Microsoft during a fireside chat at #NLPWeek.

“Voice of Customer will provide businesses for addressing and utilizing customer feedback in a better decision making.” Sachin Punyani, @AWS during the use case discussion on the application of NLP at #NLPWeek.

"When the text that you are receiving from multiple channels is passed through Comprehend, it has multiple functionalities. It can extract entities that are being talked about." - Sachin Punyani @awscloud elaborating Amazon Comprehend Service at #NLPWeek, Day 4

“We are expecting 75 billion connected endpoints online through connected devices by 2025.” @kanishkaagiwal, @awscloud during the use case discussion on the application of NLP at #NLPWeek.

“Data is the differentiating factor, so we have to get a lot of data for quick system development and robustness.” Dr. Pushpak Bhattacharyya, Professor, @iitbombay during the workshop at #NLPWeek

"If any product or service wants to reach a population that doesn't speak English, they have to adopt voice & vernacular. Voice vernacular is very important for the blue-collar workforce to empower, enable & engage themselves in market" Santhosh SS, Founder @DhiyoAi at #NLPWeek

"We built conversational AI layer consisting of speech libraries first & then built understanding capabilities or the core part of NLP to understand multi-intent, multi-entity with multiple vernacular languages" @Ananth_Nagaraj @GnaniAi during innovator presentation at #NLPWeek

“Its important to bring together all the data it may be through email or social media to help organizations to take a data-driven decision.” @kanishkaagiwal, @awscloud during the use case discussion on the application of NLP at #NLPWeek.

"#NLP has made a huge amount of progress but it is still in the shackles of large amounts of allocated data. I'm really hoping that tomorrow we are able to create systems where NLP systems can be trained with just a very small amount of data" @mishumausam @iitdelhi at #NLPWeek.

"Our mission is to simplify various communication with multi-lingual voice-over interface. It's world's first AI receptionist for hospitals & diagnostic labs. We want to simplify user's journey, especially those coming from rural districts"@AhamVishwanath @saarthi_ai at #NLPWeek

"The more #NLP brings us closer to the human level intellect, the more afraid we get of the amt. of data that we are creating & how do make sense of it? Can machines approximate & make good judgments? It's one good area to exploit" - @iyushp, @GlobalLogic_IN at #NLPWeek

The #NLPWeek begins in a couple of hours from now. Last call to register for the series of expert programs focused on #NLP for India. https://t.co/CpLqLPhXMm #NaturalLanguageProcessing #NASSCOM #DeepLearning #AI

"Our idea is to get bots where they're fit for best, get humans where they're fit for best. And let humans & machines work together to build the best experience" @SRajdev CTO @haptik during a fireside chat with @Sheenam_Ohrie @DellTech at #NLPWeek, Day 3.

#GenerativeAI #ai Welcome to #NLPWeek! This week, we’ll be diving into Natural Language Processing (NLP) – the technology behind chatbots, voice assistants, and language translation.

Invigorating fireside chats and exciting Innovator presentations is what you can expect at Day 3 of the #NLPWeek. Register to join us - https://t.co/lBc5nrfztv @DhiyoAi @GnaniAi @SRajdev @DellTechIndia @saarthi_ai @AhamVishwanath @kalikabali @MicrosoftIndia @haptik

Join us tomorrow for the final session of #NLPWeek at 1 pm to know more on "How Omnichannel can help in driving customer engagement through Text to Speech (TTS)" with @kanishkaagiwal and Sachin Punyani from @AWS Register now. https://t.co/gcQfNw4Nbc
