Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a branch of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that analyzes human language and lets people communicate with computers using it. The NLP system is like a dictionary that translates words into the specific instructions that the computer can then carry out.
It uses contextual analysis to help machines predict what you intend to say, thus your smartphone’s texting suggestions. It also teaches a chatbot to interpret your words logically, so it can understand and even engage you in lively conversation.
