The Digital Communication Methods Lab is launching a group to discuss conversational agent and AI related research. The idea is to create a space in which we can discuss ongoing research, identify opportunities for collaboration, and build a network of researchers interested in the topic. We’ll organise monthly discussion sessions.

Members of ASCoR, RPA Personalised Communication, and RPA Communication have already joined, and some of the ongoing projects include surveys of usage of chatbots in health-related information and news distribution, analysis of persuasive outcomes of conversational agents and brand communication. For more information, please contact Theo Araujo and Judith Möller.
