Discussion with AI: City life vs. Countryside life

We have developed a dialogue system that can interact with people. In order to realize meaningful dialogues, it is important to discuss specific subjects in depth in addition to discussing diverse topics. Such discussion requires the system to explain the grounds for their arguments and present them against users’ claims based on their consistent assertions. We designed discussion structure for discussing specific topics, and developed a discussion dialogue technology to manage discussion status and proceed discussion based on the structures. We aim to realize a society where people and artificial systems can help each other by understanding each other through discussions. This technology is also useful for improving the discussion skills of humans and revitalizing our thinking.
