Join us for a special session on bots and conversational messaging platforms. This month’s Meetup focuses on storytelling and lessons from the field.

Oren Jacob, CEO of PullString and former CTO of Pixar, is flying out from California to present his session “Storytelling in the Age of Computer Conversation. PullString has created award winning conversational experiences including Lt. Reyes from Call of Duty, Hello Barbie, and The Winston Show. Their tools facilitate hybrid AI combining the best aspects of machine learning and rule-based conversation.

Our second speaker is Sergio Silva, Director of Partner Success for Kik, who will present on “Kin: first mainstream cryptocurrency in messaging”. Kik was founded in 2009 and has been a pioneer in the chat space with viral group sharing opportunities and chatbots before Facebook Messenger had them.
