NLP is used to make machines comprehend text and speech like humans. It powers tools like voice assistants, translation services, and smart search engines. Businesses use NLP for automation, sentiment analysis, and improving customer experience.

3. What are the key applications of NLP?

Key applications of NLP include:

• Text classification and summarization
• Speech recognition and transcription
• Sentiment analysis
• Machine translation
• Named entity recognition (NER)
• Email sorting and spam detection

In business, NLP is essential for automating customer support, analyzing feedback, and powering voice-based AI systems like those offered by Convin.

3. How is NLP used in chatbots?

NLP allows chatbots to:

• Understand user queries using intent detection
• Extract relevant data from conversations
