Dialogue systems and conversational agents – including chatbots, personal assistants and voice control interfaces – are becoming increasingly widespread in our daily lives. In addition to the growing real-world applications, the ability to converse is closely related to the overall goal of AI. Recent advances in machine learning have sparked a renewed interest for dialogue systems in the research community. We are happy to announce the first international Conversational Intelligence Summer School (the 1st CISS), a very special camp designed to dive into the rapidly growing field of dialogue systems and conversational study AI.

Hosted by Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, summer school offers participants a chance to build solid understanding of core conversational AI concepts and techniques. Participants will get hands-on experience in developing their own end-to-end dialog systems with the help of experts
