Nice to meet you:)
Currently, my full attention is on the Chatbot revolution and Artificial Intelligence. I spend most of my time consulting companies on Chatbots with a special focus on user experience and neuromarketing. When I am not consulting, I am editing ChatbotsLife blog and writing for Venture Beat.
Why Bots? Chatbots offer a great opportunity to create new habits! Chances are you use Google >>>> than Bing. Platform shift will offer us new ways to engage people, solve problems and create new habits. Before you know it, you might be using a Facebook Bot for search.
