The Rasa Core Dialogue Engine

What am I looking at?

Rasa Core is a dialogue engine for building AI assistants.

It's part of the open source Rasa framework.

What's cool about it?

Rather than a bunch of if/else statements, it uses a machine learning model trained on example conversations to decide what to do next.

That sounds harder than writing a few if statements.

In the beginning of a project, it seems easier to just hard-code some logic.

Rasa helps you when you want to go past that and create a bot that can handle more complexity. This blog post explains the philosophy behind Rasa Core.

Can I see it in action?

We thought you'd never ask!
