What is Natural Language Processing (NLP)?

Definition

Natural Language Processing (NLP)

Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a field of artificial intelligence focused on the interaction between computers and human language, enabling machines to read, understand, and interpret text and speech.

Understanding Natural Language Processing (NLP)

NLP encompasses tasks like sentiment analysis, entity extraction, intent classification, and text generation. It is the technology that allows a chatbot to understand that "I want an appointment for tomorrow at 3" means scheduling a slot for the next day at 15:00. Modern models like GPT have revolutionized NLP by understanding context, nuance, and even sarcasm. In Tecca, NLP powers the understanding of WhatsApp messages in multiple languages, correctly interpreting customer requests even when they use local slang or make spelling mistakes.

FAQ: Natural Language Processing (NLP)

Common questions about natural language processing (nlp)

NLP in chatbots works in stages: first it tokenizes the input text, then identifies the intent (what the user wants), extracts entities (specific details like dates or names), and finally generates an appropriate response considering the full conversation context.
Modern NLP models like GPT support over 90 languages. For WhatsApp chatbots in Latin America, this means handling Spanish, Portuguese, and English seamlessly, including code-switching where users mix languages in the same conversation.
NLP is the broader field covering all language-computer interactions. NLU (Natural Language Understanding) is a subset specifically focused on comprehension, understanding meaning and intent. NLG (Natural Language Generation) is the subset focused on producing human-like text.
